Thresholds for oximetry alarms and target range in the NICU: an observational assessment based on likely oxygen tension and maturity	2020-06-27		.txt	text/plain	5075	295	61	METHODS: This is a retrospective observational study intended to describe the relative chance of normoxemia, and risks of hypoxemia and hyperoxemia at relevant SpO(2) levels in the neonatal ICU. The aim of this analysis was to see if specific SpO 2 levels for selection of high and low alarms and target ranges could be identified based on the difference in the risk of hypoxemia and hyperoxemia and further to determine to what degree these thresholds might change depending on infant maturity. This is a prospectively defined analysis with the aim of describing arterial oxygenation levels (PaO 2 ) associated with various possible SpO 2 alarm limits and target ranges. The study is based on the paradigm that high and low SpO 2 alarm limits should consider the risk of hypoxemia and hyperoxemia independent of the desired SpO 2 target range and further consider infant maturity [7] .	./cache/cord-027950-4xwcb5j7.txt	./txt/cord-027950-4xwcb5j7.txt
