Summary of ED studies

Author (year) Study population Purposes and measured outcome Related findings
Heffner et al .,(2012) [ 13 ] 300 patients underwent intubation To identify factors associated with PIH -SI ≥0.8 was the most strongly associated factor with 67% sensitivity and 80% specificity
Koby et al. , (2015) [ 14 ] 240 patients underwent intubation To quantify the relationship between the pre-intubation SI value and PIH and mortality -SI ≥0.8 indicated a higher risk of PIH but was not associated with a longer duration of intubation or higher in-hospital mortality
Kim et al ., (2016) [ 15 ] 352 patients underwent intubation To determine the possible risk factors that predict PIH -SI was 0.68 for non-PIH and 0.79 for PIH cases (P <0.01)- PIH patients had higher in-hospital mortality
Corey et al ., (2017) [ 16 ] 417 patients underwent intubation To compare the predictive ability of the pre-intubation SI value and the (MSI) for PIH; the areas under the curves of receiver operating characteristic curves were compared between the two groups in terms of the outcomes of PIH and in-hospital mortality -MSI and SI had a similar predictive ability for PIH; the areas under the curves were 0.646 and 0.650, respectively
Heffner et al .,(2013) [ 18 ] 410 patients who underwent intubation To study the incidence of and the risk factors associated with post-intubation cardiac arrest in comparison to a control group of patients intubated without arrest -17 patients with post-intubation cardiac arrest (4.2%)-the pre-intubation SI mean of the arrested group was 0.9; this value was higher than that for a non-arrested group (0.71)(P <0.01)
KIM et al ., (2014) [ 22 ] 2,403 patients underwent intubation To study the incidence and the risk factors associated with cardiac arrest in comparison to a case-control group of patients intubated without arrest -47 patients with post-intubation cardiac arrest (1.7%)
- SI was 1.1 for the arrested group and 0.9 for the control group (P = 0.03)
Vyas et al ., (2015) [ 23 ] Analyzed 30 patients who underwent cardiac arrest within 10 min of intubation To identify risk factors of post-intubation cardiac arrests. -The average shock index value was 0.95 im the arrested group
