GroupInterventionDescription
Conservative oxygen therapyOxygen* Spo2 alarm limit will be set as follow: - upper limit 94% and lower limit 88% * If spo2 \>94% Unless fio2 is 0.21%, decrease fio2 by 0.10% at intervals no longer than 5 minutes till spo2 = 94% * If spo2 within target Decrease fio2 0.05% at intervals no longer than 30 min till fio2 0.21% reached or spo2 = 88 % * If spo2 \< 88 % return to previous spo2 that achieve target spo2. * if an arterial blood gas demonstrate that the PaO2 is \< 60 mmHg FiO2 will increased if clinically appropriate irrespective of the SpO2 reading ( target po2 60-100 mmhg ) * During intubation, airway suction, tracheostomy, bronchoscopy, transportation outside of the ICU for radiological or other investigations or for procedures or operations, other critical situations such as hemodynamic collapse, patients will receive standard (non-study)treatment. * Echocardiography on randomization and at end of the study: we will calculate stroke volume according to Simpson's apical four view
Liberal oxygen therapyOxygen* Spo2 target \> 95% * No specific measures will be taken to avoid high fio2 or high po2 * Use of upper alarm limit for spo2 will be prohibited * Echocardiography on randomization and at end of the study: we will calculate stroke volume according to Simpson's apical four view
Primary Outcome Measures
