Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Conservative oxygen therapy involves the deliberate manipulation of fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) concentration to achieve normal blood oxygen saturations (pulse oximetry derived oxygen saturation 94-98%) during mechanical ventilation with an endotracheal tube. Data will be extracted from the medical records of 100 consecutive cardiac surigcal patients commencing in December 2013.
Intervention code [1] 288357 0
Not applicable
Comparator / control treatment
Patient in the before period will have recieved oxygen therapy to target oxygen saturations prior to, during and after surgery as determined by their treating clinicians. Data will be extracted from the medical records of 100 consecutive cardiac surigcal patients prior to November 2013.

Statistical methods / analysis
Variables will be assessed for normality and log-transformed if appropriate. Baseline comparisons will be performed using Fisher’s exact tests and reported as n (%). Continuous normally distributed variables will be compared using Student t-tests and reported as means (standard deviation), while non-normally distributed data will be compared using Wilcoxon rank-sum tests and reported as medians [interquartile range]. Changes over time will be determined using repeated measures mixed linear modeling with each patient treated as a random effect, and therapy group, time and the interaction of therapy group and time as effect fixed effects. All analysis will be performed by using SPSS version 19.0 (SPSS Inc, Chicago, IL, USA). To account for multiple comparisons and further reduce the chance of a type I error, a two-sided p value of 0.01 was used to indicate statistical significance.
