New Study Investigates the Impact of ORi-Guided Oxygen Titration on Hyperoxemia-Mediated Morbidity During One-Lung Ventilation

 Researchers Found That ORi-Guided Thoracic Anesthesia May Reduce Hospital Length of Stay and Increase Patient Safety

NEUCHATEL, Switzerland-Friday 18 June 2021 [ AETOS Wire ]

(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Masimo (NASDAQ: MASI) announced today the findings of a study published in the Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences in which Dr. Ayten Saracoglu and colleagues at the Marmara University Pendik Training and Research Hospital in Istanbul evaluated the ability of ORi to guide oxygenation by measuring its impact on hyperoxemia-mediated morbidity during one-lung ventilation (OLV) conducted as part of thoracic surgery.1 They concluded that ORi-guided oxygen titration “may reduce hospital stay and increase patient safety.”

ORi, available outside the U.S. since 2014, is a noninvasive and continuous parameter intended to provide additional insight into a patient’s oxygen status under supplemental oxygen. Enabled by the multi-wavelength rainbow® Pulse CO-Oximetry platform, ORi is provided alongside oxygen saturation (SpO2) measured by clinically proven Masimo SET® pulse oximetry.

Noting that during OLV, a common technique for facilitating a wide variety of pulmonary procedures, 100% fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) supplemental oxygen administration is commonly used, which exposes patients to the possibility of hyperoxia-induced lung injury, the researchers sought to determine whether ORi could “protect patient from the harmful effects of hyperoxemia with a noninvasive probe during OLV.” They divided 103 patients with lung tumors (18-70 years of age, ASA I-III), enrolled between September 2018 and September 2019 and requiring OLV as part of elective thoracic surgery, into four groups as noted below:

values

1: Oxygen titration without ORi, low-flow anesthesia (1 L/min)

71.6 ± 12.25%

2: Oxygen titration without ORi, high-flow anesthesia (4 L/min)

97.32 ± 99.7 mins.

74.64 ± 16.66%

3: Oxygen titration with ORi, low-flow anesthesia (1 L/min)

25

39.2 ± 74.1 mins.

62.8 ± 13.08%

4: Oxygen titration with ORi, high-flow anesthesia (4 L/min)

25

22.4 ± 49.4 mins.

56.4 ± 11.5%

During OLV, oxygen titration was performed without ORi for patients in groups 1 and 2, while groups 3 and 4 used ORi from Masimo Radical-7® Pulse CO-Oximeters® and rainbow® sensors. For all 4 groups, SpO2 and partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO2) were routinely measured while FiO2 was routinely administered at 50% after induction, rising to 60% when the OLV was applied, and increasing to 70%-100% as necessary.

The researchers found that ORi monitoring was associated with significantly shorter duration of OLV with FiO2 > 60%, with significantly lower mean FiO2 values during OLV (as shown in the table above), and with lower recorded PaO2 values. They also found that the duration of FiO2 > 80% during OLV was strongly correlated with longer hospital stays (p < 0.001).

The observation that mean FiO2 values were found to be significantly lower in the ORi groups (3 and 4), compared to the groups without ORi (1 and 2), led the researchers to hypothesize that “the risk of hyperoxia will be lower in patients undergoing ORi monitor[ing].” The researchers noted, “ORi cannot replace arterial blood gas analysis; however, it is useful to assess oxygenation. In groups without ORi monitors, the FiO2 was significantly higher than 80%. Moreover, in our study, it was revealed that these patients had a longer hospital stay.”

There was no significant difference in ORi values between the low-flow (group 3) and high-flow (group 4) cohorts.

The researchers concluded, “The adjustment of ORi with peripheral oxygen saturation and blood gas analysis demonstrated that hyperoxemia could be prevented during OLV in patients under low flow or high flow anesthesia. We concluded that ORi-guided thoracic anesthesia may reduce hospital stay and increase patient safety.”

ORi has not yet received FDA clearance and is not available in the United States.

About Masimo

Masimo (NASDAQ: MASI) is a global medical technology company that develops and produces a wide array of industry-leading monitoring technologies, including innovative measurements, sensors, patient monitors, and automation and connectivity solutions. Our mission is to improve patient outcomes, reduce the cost of care, and take noninvasive monitoring to new sites and applications. Masimo SET® Measure-through Motion and Low Perfusion™ pulse oximetry, introduced in 1995, has been shown in over 100 independent and objective studies to outperform other pulse oximetry technologies.2 Masimo SET® has also been shown to help clinicians reduce severe retinopathy of prematurity in neonates,3 improve CCHD screening in newborns,4 and, when used for continuous monitoring with Masimo Patient SafetyNet™ in post-surgical wards, reduce rapid response team activations, ICU transfers, and costs.5-8 Masimo SET® is estimated to be used on more than 200 million patients in leading hospitals and other healthcare settings around the world,9 and is the primary pulse oximetry at 9 of the top 10 hospitals according to the 2020-21 U.S. News and World Report Best Hospitals Honor Roll.10 Masimo continues to refine SET® and in 2018, announced that SpO2 accuracy on RD SET® sensors during conditions of motion has been significantly improved, providing clinicians with even greater confidence that the SpO2 values they rely on accurately reflect a patient’s physiological status. In 2005, Masimo introduced rainbow® Pulse CO-Oximetry technology, allowing noninvasive and continuous monitoring of blood constituents that previously could only be measured invasively, including total hemoglobin (SpHb®), oxygen content (SpOC™), carboxyhemoglobin (SpCO®), methemoglobin (SpMet®), Pleth Variability Index (PVi®), RPVi™ (rainbow® PVi), and Oxygen Reserve Index (ORi™). In 2013, Masimo introduced the Root® Patient Monitoring and Connectivity Platform, built from the ground up to be as flexible and expandable as possible to facilitate the addition of other Masimo and third-party monitoring technologies; key Masimo additions include Next Generation SedLine® Brain Function Monitoring, O3® Regional Oximetry, and ISA™ Capnography with NomoLine® sampling lines. Masimo’s family of continuous and spot-check monitoring Pulse CO-Oximeters® includes devices designed for use in a variety of clinical and non-clinical scenarios, including tetherless, wearable technology, such as Radius-7® and Radius PPG™, portable devices like Rad-67®, fingertip pulse oximeters like MightySat® Rx, and devices available for use both in the hospital and at home, such as Rad-97®. Masimo hospital automation and connectivity solutions are centered around the Masimo Hospital Automation™ platform, and include Iris® Gateway, iSirona™, Patient SafetyNet, Replica™, Halo ION™, UniView®, UniView :60™, and Masimo SafetyNet™.
