Overview

Providing supplemental oxygen to achieve an oxygen saturation greater than 90 percent is the standard of care for a patient presenting with acute coronary syndrome.

Indications for Supplemental Oxygen

  • In general oxygen is administered via nasal canula or face mask to patients with an uncomplicated course to maintain an oxygen saturation greater than 90%.
  • Endotracheal intubation may be required in those patients with a clinical course complicated by severe pulmonary edema, cardiogenic shock or mechanical complications (e.g. papillary muscle rupture, free wall rupture, or acquired ventricular septal defect).
  • Finger pulse oximetry is useful for the continuous monitoring of SaO2 (arterial oxygen saturation) but is not mandatory in patients who do not appear to be at risk of hypoxemia.
  • There is no evidence to support the administration of oxygen to all patients with ACS in the absence of signs of respiratory distress or arterial hypoxemia.

2014 AHA/ACC Guideline for the Management of Patients With Non–ST-Elevation Acute Coronary Syndromes (DO NOT EDIT) [1]

Class I

"1. Supplemental oxygen should be administered to patients with NSTE-ACS with arterial oxygen saturation less than 90%, respiratory distress, or other high-risk features of hypoxemia. (Level of Evidence: C)"

2011 ACCF/AHA Focused Update Incorporated Into the ACC/AHA 2007 Guidelines for the Management of Patients With Unstable Angina/Non -ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (DO NOT EDIT)[2][3]

Oxygen Therapy (DO NOT EDIT)[2][3]

Class I

"1. Supplemental oxygen should be administered to patients with unstable angina / NSTEMI with an arterial saturation <90%, respiratory distress, or other high risk features for hypoxemia. (Pulse oximetry is useful for continuous measurement of SaO2) (Level of Evidence: B)"

Class IIa

"1. It is reasonable to administer supplemental oxygen to all patients with unstable angina / NSTEMI during the first 6 h after presentation. (Level of Evidence: C)"
