Abstract:
Objective To explore hypoxemia on transportation in elderly patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC) under general anesthesia. Methods SPO 2 was monitered continuously during peridecannulation period, especially within the first 5 minutes in case of incidence of hypoxemia. Results 15 out of 100 cases were found to undergo hypoxemia with SPO 2≤92%. The incidence rate of hypoxemia was 15%(15/100). Conclusions It is important to monitor SPO 2 and administer oxygen inhalation continuously on transfer from operation room back to ward to prevent hypoxemia in elderly patients.
