There will be two stratum (groups) based on gestation: >27 weeks to 34 weeks
>34 weeks. This will help in having a sufficient number of small babies and validate the data in small babies. Recruitment will start after 24hrs to allow sufficient time for transition, until their h

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The time to display a valid data for the two techniques (pulse oximeter sensor with opaque wrap versus pulse oximeter sensor without opaque wrap). Total duration of recording will be for 10 minutes from the time of valid data display. Valid data as per study protocol definition. These data will be downloaded directly from both monitors into research laptop | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Number of valid data points for the two techniques (OWPS and PS) during the 10 minute recording will be compared from the downloaded data 2. Number of artifacts for the two techniques (OWPS and PS) during the 10 minute recording will be compared from the downloaded data. Artifacts as per study protocol definition | — |
