1328 Adjustments of Spo2 Alarm Limits and Corresponding Spo2 Levels in Very Preterm Infants

Aromatherapy with Rosa Damascenes in Apnea, Bradycardia and Spo2 of Preterm Infants; a Randomized Clinical Trial

Background  Apnea is one of the most common problems in preterm neonates. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of aromatherapy on the reduction of apnea, bradycardia, and Pulse Oximetry (SPO2) in premature infants. Materials and Methods In a clinical trial study, 60 preterm neonates randomly divided in two groups and exposed to aromatherapy with Rosa damascenes distillate or distilled...

Prevention of retinopathy of prematurity in preterm infants through changes in clinical practice and SpO2 technology

AIM To identify whether pulse oximetry technology is associated with decreased retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and laser treatment. METHODS Inborn infants <1250 g who had eye exams were compared at two centres in three periods. In Period 1, SpO₂ target was ≥93% and pulse oximetry technology was the same in both Centres. In Period 2, guidelines for SpO₂ 88-93% were implemented at both centres...

Correlation between the levels of SpO2 and PaO2

A randomised crossover trial of clinical algorithm for oxygen saturation targeting in preterm infants with frequent desaturation episodes.

OBJECTIVES Strategies for oxygen therapy for preterm infants, such as the Vermont-Oxford's 'Breathsavers' guidelines, seek to strike a balance between the potential risks of the extremes of hyperoxia and hypoxia in preterm infants. Using an algorithm based on those guidelines, we aimed to compare the proportion of time spent within the SpO2 target range during algorithm-based management of oxyg...
