[Assessing the probability of hypoxic complications in cardiosurgery patients using statistical simulation of...

The program is based on measuring the parameters determining the relationships between oxygen, blood acid-base, and blood and urine water-electrolyte balance in 150 patients after cardiopulmonary bypass surgery. Three degrees of homeostasis were distinguished: normal, hypoxic complications, and fatal hypoxic complications. The most informative laboratory tests reflecting the oxygen status and acid-base and water-electrolyte balance and indicating the presence and severity of hypoxic complications of homeostasis were selected. Graphic presentation of the probability scale predicting the hypoxic disorders helps more rapidly (than with the digital values) assess the severity of oxygen homeostasis disorders in patients. The PROGNOZ computer program may be used for the diagnosis and prediction of hypoxic disorders in intensive care units for cardiological and cardiosurgical patients.
