Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Comparison of variability and repeatability of the recorded cerebral tissue oxygenation signals between two groups of patients (clinical stable preterm and term newborns)6 hoursThere are two FDA-approved near infrared cerebral oximeters: 1. FORE-SIGHT- which uses laser light 2. INVOS 5100- which uses light emmiting diode. Measurements in adult patients have showed that FORE-SIGHT provides more stable signal. Purpose of our study is to compare these two devices in newborn patients.
