Lung Function Monitoring During Hypoxemia Episodes

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Hypoxemia of Newborn

In brief

Premature infants commonly have desaturation episodes due to different reasons such as cessation of breathing or loss of lung volume. The purpose of this study is to differentiate the mechanisms of desaturation episodes with continuous lung volume monitoring. As we better understand the mechanisms underlying the desaturation episodes, newer strategies directed at underlying pathophysiology can potentially by evaluated for mitigation of these episodes.
