Study Summary

This trial is testing whether an automated oxygen control device is better than manual control by a NICU nurse in keeping a premature neonate's SPO2 within the prescribed range.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for premature infants in the NICU who are on high flow nasal cannula or bubble CPAP, need oxygen adjustments frequently, and are less than 31 weeks gestational age or under 1500 grams at birth. Infants with congenital heart disease or a set minimum FiO2 by their provider cannot join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests an automated oxygen control device against manual control by nurses to keep a preemie's SpO2 within target range. It's a crossover study where each baby experiences both methods, switching every 6 hours over six days to compare effectiveness.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves standard care procedures (oxygen delivery), side effects may not be directly from the device but can include potential risks associated with improper oxygen levels such as hypoxia or hyperoxia.
