Routine pulse oximetry in the asymptomatic newborn.
OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of routine measurement of postductal oxygen saturation as an adjunct to routine clinical examination in the asymptomatic newborn. DESIGN AND SETTING Prospective study in a district general hospital. PATIENTS All 6166 infants inborn between 1 April 1999 and 31 March 2001. INTERVENTION Oxygen saturation was measured over two minutes, after the age of 2 hours a...
متن کاملNewborn pulse oximetry screening in practice.
The concept of using pulse oximetry (PO) as a screening test to identify newborn babies with critical congenital heart defects (CCHD) before life-threatening collapse occurs has been debated for some time now. Several recent large studies have consistently shown that PO screening adds value to existing screening techniques with over 90% of CCHDs detected. It can also help identify newborn babie...
متن کاملPulse oximetry reference values at high altitude.
Pulse oximetry is becoming popular for measuring oxygen saturation of haemoglobin in paediatric patients. There are no reference values for children living at high altitudes, and the aim of this study was to determine the values of oxygen saturation of haemoglobin in healthy children in Bogota (2640 m above sea level). The saturation was determined in 189 children aged 5 days to 24 months with ...
متن کاملReference values for pulse oximetry at high altitude.
OBJECTIVE To determine reference values for oxygen saturation (Sao2) in healthy children younger than 5 years living at high altitude. DESIGN One hundred and sixty eight children were examined for Sao2 at 4018 m during well child visits. Physiological state was also noted during the examination. RESULTS The mean Sao2 was 87.3% (95% confidence intervals (CI) 86.7%, 87.9%) with a median value...
متن کاملPulse Oximetry
The principal advantage of optical sensors for medical applications is their intrinsic safety since there is no electrical contact between the patient and the equipment. (An added bonus is that they are also less suspect to electromagnetic interference). This has given rise to a variety of optical techniques to monitor physiological parameters: for example, the technique of Laser Doppler veloci...
