Role of Pulse Oximetry in Examining Newborns for Congenital Heart Disease: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart Association and American Academy of Pediatrics
William T. Mahle,Jane W. Newburger,G. Paul Matherne,Frank C. Smith,Tracey R. Hoke,Robert Koppel,Samuel S. Gidding,Robert H. Beekman,Scott D. Grosse +8 more
TL;DR: Routine pulse oximetry performed after 24 hours in hospitals that have on-site pediatric cardiovascular services incurs very low cost and risk of harm, and future studies in larger populations and across a broad range of newborn delivery systems are needed to determine whether this practice should become standard of care in the routine assessment of the neonate.
Journal ArticleDOI
