Pre and post-SBT assessment
Pre-SBT assessment included evaluation of baseline clinical parameters and an arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis with documentation of baseline blood gas parameters (Figure 2). All the parameters showed significant improvement in the post-intervention phase. Amongst the parameters included in the post-SBT monitoring, only monitoring of post SBT heart rate and blood pressure were being done in more than 60% of patients. A significant improvement was observed in all parameters monitored post-SBT (Figure 3).
