Abstract

Background: According to this experimental theory that rising O2 in the breathing air may prevent myocardium from Ischemia it is routine to use oxygen for all patients with ACUTE CORONARY SYNDROME (ACS) for at least 24-48h. Using O2for patients who are not hypoxemic not only causes extra costs but also is harmful via decreasing cardiac output. The aim of this study was to measure the blood oxygen saturation in patients with ACS admitted in coronary care units (CCUs).Materials and Methods: This was a descriptive study on 100 patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) or Unstable Angina (UA) who were admitted in coronary care unit of the Loghman Hospital. Cases were selected via convenience sampling. Our standard for HYPOXEMIA was oxygen saturation<90 % (O2Sat <90 %). Data were analyzed through chi-square and t-tests.Results: The frequency of HYPOXEMIA in this study was 22% that was apparently higher in older patients. HYPOXEMIA was significantly higher among women, but there was no significant relationship between smoking cigarette or hookah and O2 Sat.Conclusion: According to the results, 78 percent out of the patients had an appropriate O2 Sat and considering the adverse effects of O2 therapy and the economic burden it causes, it seems that using a PULSE OXYMETER in CCU and ordering O2 for patients according to their O2 Sat is a suitable solution.
