Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter StudyAutomated versus Manual Oxygen Control with Different Saturation Targets and Modes of Respiratory Support in Preterm Infants.
To determine the efficacy and safety of automated adjustment of the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) in maintaining arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) within a higher (91%-95%) and a lower (89%-93%) target range in preterm infants. ⋯ A-FiO2 control improved SpO2 targeting across different SpO2 ranges and reduced hypoxemia in preterm infants on noninvasive and invasive respiratory support.
