Applicability of the ROX index in decision-making for hospitalization in COVID-19 patients [PDF]
Aim: Data on the outpatient follow-up of COVID-19 cases is still scarce. Also, the significance of the ROX index in decision-making for hospitalization in the ambulatory COVID-19 cases remains unknown. The aim of this study is to determine the general characteristics of COVID-19 patients treated as outpatients and to investigate whether the ROX index ...

The ROX index as a predictor of standard oxygen therapy outcomes in thoracic trauma [PDF]
Background Thoracic trauma is commonplace and accounts for 50–70% of the injuries found in severe trauma. Little information is available in the literature as to timing of endotracheal intubation.

Background High-velocity nasal insufflation (Hi-VNI) in patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF) gives humidified, heated oxygen, with a higher velocity, and gas flow up to 40 l/min, and FiO2 up to 1.0 through more comfortable, relatively small ...

Performance of the ROX index to predict intubation in immunocompromised patients receiving high-flow nasal cannula for acute respiratory failure [PDF]
Background Delayed intubation is associated with high mortality. There is a lack of objective criteria to decide the time of intubation. We assessed a recently described combined oxygenation index (ROX index) to predict intubation in immunocompromised ...

Validity of ROX index in prediction of risk of intubation in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia [PDF]
Introduction: One important concern during the management of COVID-19 pneumonia patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure is early anticipation of the need for intubation. ROX is an index that can help in identification of patients with low and those with high risk of intubation. So, this study was planned to validate the diagnostic accuracy of

ROX INDEX A PROMISING NONINVASIVE INDEX [PDF]
TOPIC: Critical Care TYPE: Original Investigations PURPOSE: Respiratory Rate-Oxygenation Index (ROX index), defined as the ratio of oxygen saturation, fractional percentage of inspired oxygen (SpO2/FiO2) to respiratory rate (RR), has been found to be a predictor of patients who will improve with High-Flow Nasal Oxygen (HFNO) therapy.

The Use of the Rox Index to Guide High-Flow Nasal Cannula Therapy and the Need for Intubation Is Associated With Meaningful Patient OutcomesTake-Home Points [PDF]
Background: Acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) is a common and life-threatening condition frequently managed with high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygenation.

[ROX index to predict failure with low flow devices in COVID-19]. [PDF]
Introducción: el índice ROX (iROX) obtenido a partir de la saturación por oximetría de pulso/fracción inspirada de oxígeno y frecuencia respiratoria, pronostica el éxito con cánulas nasales de alto flujo (CNAF), pero se desconoce su desempeño para dispositivos de oxigenación de bajo flujo (DOBF).

Respiratory Rate Oxygenation (ROX) index as predictor of high flow nasal cannula in pediatric patients in pediatric intensive care unit [PDF]
Background High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is often used in pediatric populations with respiratory distress. In adults, the respiratory-rate oxygenation (ROX) index is used as a predictor of HFNC therapy; however, children have age-associated differences ...

Admission SpO2 and ROX index predict outcome in patients with COVID-19. [PDF]
This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of pulse oximetry-derived oxygen saturation (SpO2) on room air, determined at hospital admission, as a predictor for the need for mechanical ventilatory support in patients with Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19).In this retrospective observational study, demographic and clinical details of the patients were ...
