Description
Confusion that strikes in intensive care is a common snag after a bleed in the brain, and blood oxygen may play a part. Penghui Du and five co-authors test that link in a 2026 study drawn from a large intensive care database. The pool held 1,935 adults treated for a brain bleed.
Oxygen levels after arrival were split into low, middle, and high bands. A bedside test for confusion sorted who fell into delirium. The high band showed the most confusion, at 29.6 percent, against 19.7 in the low band and 17.6 in the middle. Models that allow for other traits kept the high band linked to added risk. Curves that test each level in turn, and scores that blend oxygen with a coma scale, sharpen the check. The result hints that more oxygen is not always better.
