How Do We Monitor Oxygenation during the Management of PPHN? Alveolar, Arterial, Mixed Venous Oxygen Tension or Peripheral Saturation?

Children, 2020
Oxygen is a pulmonary vasodilator and plays an important role in mediating circulatory transition from fetal to postnatal period. Oxygen tension (PO2) in the alveolus (PAO2) and pulmonary artery (PaO2) are the main factors that influence hypoxic ...

Chinese Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Surgical Treatment of Adult Obstructive Sleep Apnea (2024)

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common chronic disorder characterized by abnormal breathing during sleeping. OSA can damage various organs throughout the body and is burdensome, both socially and economically. Moreover, as OSA has been increasingly studied in recent years, new evidence‐based guidelines for its diagnosis and surgical ...

Screening for congenital heart defects: diversified strategies in current China

World Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2019
Background Congenital heart defects (CHD) is the most common type of birth defect and a leading cause of infant mortality in China. Detection of CHD during newborn is still challenging.

Oxygen targeting in preterm infants: a physiological interpretation. [PDF]

, 2015
Randomized controlled trials evaluating low-target oxygen saturation (SpO2:85% to 89%) vs high-target SpO2 (91% to 95%) have shown variable results regarding mortality and morbidity in extremely preterm infants.

Evaluation of a Clinical Risk Score for Preterm Necrotising Enterocolitis: The ‘Check‐NEC Score’

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Early prediction of necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) in preterm infants is important given its significant health, economic and social–emotional burden. We aimed to validate a clinical risk score (Check‐NEC Score [CNS]) for this purpose in preterm infants.

Oxygen supplementation to stabilize preterm infants in the fetal to neonatal transition: no satisfactory answer.

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2016
Fetal life elapses in a relatively low oxygen environment. Immediately after birth with the initiation of breathing the lung expands and oxygen availability to tissue rises by twofold generating a physiologic oxidative stress. However, both lung anatomy

Vibroacoustic stimulation for fetal assessment in labour in the presence of a nonreassuring fetal heart rate trace (Review) [PDF]

, 2013
Background: Fetal vibroacoustic stimulation (VAS) is a simple, non-invasive technique where a device is placed on the maternal abdomen over the region of the fetal head and sound is emitted at a predetermined level for several seconds. It is hypothesised

α‐Adrenergic blockade impairs ductus venosus shunting during an acute period of fetal hypoxaemia without further deficits to cerebral oxygen delivery

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The fetal circulation has unique shunts, including the ductus venosus (DV), the tone of which dictates how much substrate‐rich blood returning from the placenta is streamed preferentially away from the liver and instead towards the heart. Herein, we aimed to use clinically relevant MRI techniques in sheep to measure indirectly induced changes ...

Oxygen and glucose supplementation increases rates of linear growth and cell proliferation in growth‐restricted fetal sheep

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Effects of sustained oxygen and glucose supplementation on growth and cellular proliferation in growth‐restricted fetuses. This study evaluated whether supplemental oxygen and glucose could improve growth rates in sheep fetuses with established fetal growth restriction (FGR). Following the induction of placental insufficiency and
