About this episode

Contributor: Aaron Lessen , MD

Educational Pearls:

  • Patients on 10L or more of oxygen per minute in the ICU were randomized to oxygen goals of 90% or 96% to compare 90-day mortality rates
  • Mortality rates were about 42% for both of oxygen target groups, indicating no significant difference
