Popis: In 55 high-risk neonates of different birth-weight and gestational age, transcutaneous pO2 (tcpO2) was continuously monitored during transports from the Obstetric Units to the Neonatal Intensive Care Units. We were able to demonstrate that the need for oxygen was overestimated in most of the children and thus FiO2 could be reduced in nearly all cases. In this way, FiO2 can be adapted to the real need of the children and hypoxemias can be avoided as far as possible frequency and duration of hyperoxemias can be reduced. Moreover, valuable knowledge about further management of mechanical ventilation may be obtained. Complications, as e.g. obstruction of endotracheal tube, are more rapidly recognized than by ECG-monitoring alone.
