| Popis: | The measurement of arterial oxygen tension in the neonate is essential for those requiring supplementary oxygen and ventilatory support. This measurement should be standard care to avoid the development of hypoxia with low oxygen tensions and subsequent acidemia, decreased surfactant production and persistent fetal circulation. Also in the premature infant high oxygen tensions are a cause of retinopathy of prematurity and possible blindness [1]. |
