Blood Pressure, Cerebral Tissue Oxygenation
Conditions
Brief summary
Blood pressure will be measured in min. 5/10/15 after birth. Cerebral tissue oxygenation (crSO2) monitoring with NIRS in addition to routine arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) monitoring with pulse oximetry will be performed continuously during the first 15 minutes after birth
Interventions
Measurement of cerebral tissue oxygenation with NIRS and blood pressure during immediate transition after birth
