Transcutaneous oxygen monitoring during neonatal transport. 1980

T A Clarke, and E Zmora, and J H Chen, and G Reddy, and T A Merritt

The use of transcutaneous PO2 monitoring during neonatal transport was found to be feasible and clinically useful in maintaining the partial pressure of arterial oxygen within a desired range. Adjustment of fractional inspiratory oxygen (FIO2) to maintain transcutaneous PO2 between 50 to 70 torr resulted in a greater number of infants arriving at a tertiary center without either hypoxemia or hyperoxemia.
