“…For the critical neurological outcome of favorable mRS score at hospital discharge, we identified very low-certainty evidence (downgraded for risk of bias) from 1 retrospective observational study 93 recruiting 1352 patients with acute stroke and without hypoxia at baseline showing no difference associated with prehospital supplementary oxygen compared with breathing room air. The dose of supplementary oxygen was not provided in this study.…”

“…For the important adverse effects and complications outcome of hospital-acquired pneumonia, we identified very low-certainty evidence (downgraded for risk of bias) from 1 retrospective observational study 93 recruiting 1352 adults with acute stroke and without hypoxia at baseline showing the association of prehospital supplementary oxygen with a lower rate of hospital-acquired pneumonia than reported among those breathing room air (RR, 0.50; 95% CI, 0.26 À 0.98).…”

“…The 2020 SysRev focused exclusively on oxygen use for those with suspected stroke, rather than on general first aid oxygen use. 115 With few exceptions, 116 the studies reviewed reported no benefit associated with oxygen use (compared with room air) in those with suspected stroke, and 1 study 117 reported a higher rate of respiratory complications associated with oxygen use.…”

“…Interestingly, in acute stroke standardizing protocols might be more feasible since the large majority of patients are transported by ALS providers who are the most highly trained. Dylla et al found 96% and Collins et al found 91% of acute stroke patients were transported by ALS [37,38].…”

“…While national guidelines should help to standardize prehospital oxygen therapy in stroke, it seems a considerable portion of acute stroke patients transported by EMS are subject to hyperoxia [37]. In a single center retrospective analysis of adult stroke patients over four years, Dylla et al found that 26% of patients received oxygen despite normal oxygen saturations (hyperoxia) [38]. Interestingly, patients treated with oxygen appeared to have more severe disease with higher National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores and lower Glasgow coma scores (GCS).…”
