Where this comes from

Abstract

Dormishian and colleagues in their study address an issue that care teams in the NICU encounter on a daily basis, regarding motion artifacts during oxygenation monitoring. In our commentary, we discuss the available tools that allow continuous noninvasive monitoring of oxygenation in the NICU, and modalities that increase the time premature infants spend in the desired SpO<sub>2</sub> range and impact their clinical outcomes.
