The following is a summary of “Prognostic value of PaO2/FiO2 ratio in predicting clinical outcomes in COVID-19 patients,” published in the June 2024 issue of Critical Care by Canto-Costal et al.

The models use maximal deflection of esophageal pressure to quantify HFOT-related breathing effort (ΔPes) and the risk for strong breathing effort (ΔPes >10 cmH2O). Two models have been developed to ...

The PF ratio (PaO2/FiO2 ratio) is an essential indicator used in medicine to gauge the severity of a patient’s hypoxemic respiratory failure. This value helps healthcare professionals determine ...

The P/F ratio, also known as the PaO2/FiO2 ratio, is a valuable tool for evaluating oxygenation status in critically ill patients. It is commonly used to determine the severity of acute respiratory ...
