Achieved oxygen saturations and risk for bronchopulmonary dysplasia with pulmonary hypertension in preterm infants

ObjectiveCharacterisation of oxygen saturation (SpO2)-related predictors that correspond with both bronchopulmonary dysplasia-associated pulmonary hypertension (BPD-PH) development and survival status in infants with BPD-PH may improve patient outcomes. This investigation assessed whether (1) infant...

Description
Summary:ObjectiveCharacterisation of oxygen saturation (SpO2)-related predictors that correspond with both bronchopulmonary dysplasia-associated pulmonary hypertension (BPD-PH) development and survival status in infants with BPD-PH may improve patient outcomes. This investigation assessed whether (1) infants with BPD-PH compared with infants with BPD alone, and (2) BPD-PH non-survivors compared with BPD-PH survivors would (a) achieve lower SpO2 distributions, (b) have a higher fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) exposure and (c) have a higher oxygen saturation index (OSI).DesignCase–control study between infants with BPD-PH (cases) and BPD alone (controls) and by survival status within cases.SettingSingle-centre study in the USA.PatientsInfants born at
