Background: Titration of supplemental O 2 using oxygen saturation (SpO2) measured by pulse oximetry (PO) is becoming common in the delivery room. However there is little consensus to define ...

The Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) recommends upper and lower limits of preductal saturations (SpO2) extrapolated from studies in infants resuscitated in room air. These limits have not been ...
