Registration Number
NCT03625700
Lead Sponsor
Hannibal Troensegaard
Brief Summary

This study evaluates the use and effects of supplementary oxygen in surgical and medical wards on patients admitted to a hospital in the capital region of Denmark. The population will be divided in to three groups according to their oxygenation status. The main outcome will be 30-day mortality, with secondary outcomes being Length of stay, 30-day admission to ICU, 30-day reoperations, 30-day readmission, and peak values within 30-days of C-reactive protein, S-Creatinine, Troponin.
