Respiratory Therapy - ROX Index

[@Qtspookyghost]

This is awesome to know. Kettering doesn’t mention this at all.

[@dymaranastasja]

I think this is new. The 12th edition doesn’t even mention this.

[@RespiratoryCoach]

Yes, it's relatively new. As the prior comment states, it just made it's way into Egan's. Thanks for watching!

Damn coach, another jewel. Thank you so much!!! I will definitely include this on my assessment tool and on my rounding.

[@RespiratoryCoach]

Thank you, Coach, for discussing the ROX index .It is a new tool for me. My question is, if the index is low, can we move to NIMV and then check the index again? I am a pediatric intensive care physician. Could you tell me about the ROX index values for pediatrics, thanks a lot

Great video as always! One question: if you have a patient on High Flow due to hypoksia, could you then use the Rox Index as a guideline for if the patient is in need of BiPAP (V60) instead?

[@RespiratoryCoach]

Yes, the correct intervention may be to move to NIV upon early recognition of potential HFNC failure. Great question and thanks for watching!
