Association between transcutaneous oxygen saturation within 24 h of admission and mortality in critically ill patients with non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage: a retrospective analysis of the MIMIC-IV database.

ABSTRACT:

Background

In critically ill patients, transcutaneous oxygen saturation (SpO₂) upon admission is typically associated with in-hospital mortality. Nevertheless, the available information for patients with non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is limited. In our study, our objective was to assess the correlation between SpO₂ levels and mortality among patients diagnosed with severe SAH.

Methods

In this study, we extracted data from the Medical Information Marketplace in Intensive Care (MIMIC-IV) database, which comprises information on critically ill patients. By employing matching ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes, we identified 3,328 patients diagnosed with SAH. Every individual who was admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) had their SpO₂ data
