Aug 27, 2019 · New evidence was found from 1 study that suggested oxygen saturation levels of 90% prior to discharge had no adverse effects. The American Paediatric Guidelines (2019) on bronchiolitis in children have amended their recommendation to state that oxygen levels can be lowered to 90% during treatment. The original surveillance proposal noted that ...
Aug 1, 2020 · Hospital-based clinicians commonly use monitors to measure the heart rhythms, heart rates, respiratory rates, and oxyhemoglobin saturation levels of children who are hospitalized, 15,16 and there is wide variation in how clinicians monitor children who are hospitalized. 15 This variation has important potential implications because it remains ...

Aug 1, 2020 · The advent of pulse oximetry as a widely adopted technology has transformed the overall clinical assessment of children with acute respiratory illness. One result of this transformation is a stronger clinical focus on treating hypoxemia in young children hospitalized with common respiratory illnesses, such as bronchiolitis, asthma, and pneumonia. For example, in acute viral bronchiolitis ...

Jan 2, 2024 · OBJECTIVES. To examine 2 hospital oxygen saturation target policies and clinical outcomes in infants hospitalized with bronchiolitis.METHODS. This multicenter cohort study used data collected from a randomized clinical trial of infants aged 4 weeks to 24 months, hospitalized with bronchiolitis at children’s and community hospitals from 2016 to 2019. We modeled the association between ...
Oxygen therapy does, however, have consequences of over-use and hyperoxia, such as oxygen toxicity and absorption atelectasis.3-5 The delivery of oxygen in pediatric patients requires appropriate selection of the delivery device, concen-tration, and flow for the most effective therapy to avoid both hypoxiaandhyperoxia.6,7

Mar 8, 2019 · In February, 2019, the American Thoracic Society (ATS) released new guidance for home oxygen therapy in children with chronic respiratory conditions. These guidelines, drawn up by a panel of 22 experts in paediatric and neonatal medicine, respiratory therapy, and nursing and population health, as well as parents, aimed to define hypoxaemia in children and produce recommendations for ...
Objectives: Maintaining preterm infants within a goal oxygen saturation range challenges care providers. Through periodic assessment of saturation trends on infants' bedside histogram reports, our initiative aimed to (1) increase time spent at goal saturations and (2) reduce death or severe retinopathy of prematurity.
