Care Bundle to Improve Oxygen Maintenance and Events
Abstract
Prolonged periods spent outside the target range of oxygen saturation (SpO2) in preterm infants, along with frequent desaturation events, predispose them to retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and long-term neurodevelopmental impairment. The primary aim of this study was to increase the mean time spent within the target SpO2 range (WTR) by 10% and to reduce the frequency of desaturation events by 5 events per patient day, respectively, within 18 …
