Brief summary
Near infrared spectroscopy offers the possibility of noninvasive and continuous bedside investigation of cerebral and mesenteric oxygenation in newborn infants. Using this technique the investigators investigated the effect of mydriatic eye drops on cerebral and mesenteric oxygenation in preterm infants
Detailed description
The cerebral and mesenteric oxygenation will be measured by NIRS before, during and after the mydriatic eye drops are instilled.
Interventions
NIRS device used in this study, the optical field includes a volume of tissue approximately 2 cm deep to the surface probe with a 4-mm source-detector distance, and thus, organ-specific monitoring is feasible in small patients. With informed consent, the investigators applied NIRS probes to the forehead and abdomen for cerebral (rSO2C) and abdominal (rSO2P) regional oxygen saturation measurements.
