High vs. Low Initial Oxygen to Improve the Breathing Effort of Preterm Infants at Birth: Study Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial
Background: Although most preterm infants breathe at birth, their respiratory drive is weak and supplemental oxygen is often needed to overcome hypoxia. This could in turn lead to hyperoxia. To reduce the risk of hyperoxia, currently an initial low oxygen concentration (21-30%) is recommended during...
