Oxygen Reserve Index and Arterial Partial Pressure of Oxygen: Relationship in Open Heart Surgery

Conclusions: The preserved relationship between ORI and PaO2 in the mild and moderate hyperoxic range can allow more precise titration of oxygen therapy to guide therapy targeting normoxia, mildly and moderately hyperoxia. Additionally, it could have a potential use as an early warning system for impeding hypoxia.
