Evaluation of Pulse Oximetry in the Early Detection of Congenital Heart Diseases in Newborns

Background: Congenital heart diseases, which are asymptomatic at birth, are the most important causes of infant mortality. This study aimed to evaluate the role of pulse oximetry in the early detection of congenital heart diseases among newborns.Methods: In this cross-sectional descriptive study, 1230 newborns who were born in university hospitals in an urban area of Iran were placed unde...

Universal Pulse Oximetry Screening for Early Detection of Critical Congenital Heart Disease

Critical congenital heart disease (CCHD) is a major cause of infant death and morbidity worldwide. An early diagnosis and timely intervention can significantly reduce the likelihood of an adverse outcome. However, studies from the United States and other developed countries have shown that as many as 30%-50% of infants with CCHD are discharged after birth without being identified. This diagnost...

evaluation of pulse oximetry in the early detection of cyanotic congenital heart disease in newborns

background: delayed or missed diagnosis of critical and cyanotic congenital heart disease (chd) in asymptomatic newborns may result in significant morbidity and mortality. the aim of this study was to determine the accuracy of pulse oximetry screening  performed on the first day of life for the early detection of critical and cyanotic chd in apparently normal newborns. methods: this cross-secti...

Pulse oximetry screening for critical congenital heart defects.

BACKGROUND Health outcomes are improved when newborn babies with critical congenital heart defects (CCHDs) are detected before acute cardiovascular collapse. The main screening tests used to identify these babies include prenatal ultrasonography and postnatal clinical examination; however, even though both of these methods are available, a significant proportion of babies are still missed. Rout...

Critical congenital heart disease screening using pulse oximetry.

A national approach to screening for critical congenital heart disease (CCHD) using pulse oximetry was undertaken in the United States. Following the scientific studies that laid the groundwork for the addition of CCHD screening to the U.S. Recommended Uniform Screening Panel (RUSP) and endorsement by professional societies, advocates including physicians, nurses, parents, medical associations,...

Pulse oximetry screening for congenital heart disease.

The recent paper by Ewer et al 1 and an accompanying editorial 2 in the Lancet raised the question of universal pulse oximetry screening of newborn infants on the postnatal ward prior to discharge. In the Republic of Ireland there are 75,000 births annually, distributed across nineteen maternity units. We surveyed all of these units regarding the use of oxygen saturation screening on the postna...
