- Crit Care Med. 2010 Oct;38(10):1970-7.
-
Rationale for inclusion: Randomized controlled trial evaluating the use of ARDSNet recommendations to a patient population not included in the original LPS studies. Suggests that lung protective strategy in not a one-size-fits-all approach for the critically ill burn patient.

- Carboxyhemoglobin half-life in carbon monoxide-poisoned patients treated with 100% oxygen at atmospheric pressure.
- Weaver LK, Howe S, Hopkins R, Chan KJ.
- Chest. 2000 Mar;117(3):801-8.
-
Rationale for inclusion: Retrospective chart review evaluating the half-life of carbon monoxide in patients revealing that the half-life of carboxyhemoglobin was approximately 74 minutes on 100% O2. They demonstrate that half-life was influenced only by the patient's PaO2.
