Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Arterial oxygen saturation (SatO2). Timepoint: every 10 minutes and totally 30 minutes in every position. Method of measurement: pulse oximeter and the concentration of received oxygen (FiO2) measured by using oxygen/air Blender.;Heart rate (HR). Timepoint: every 10 minutes and totally 30 minutes in every position. Method of measurement: pulse oximeter and the concentration of received oxygen (FiO2) measured by using oxygen/air Blender.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Enhancement of arterial oxygen saturation and reduction of concentration of received oxygen of Nasal CPAP treating premature infant's in Prone position. Timepoint: every 10 minutes and totally 30 minutes in every position. Method of measurement: By using the Masimo Set pulse oximeter structured by SAADAT company and Medin air/oxygen Blender structured by Innovation company.
