| Abstract | Monitoring of transcutaneous oxygen pressure (PO2) is a routine procedure in the management of sick newborn infants. The clinician frequently requires information on trends in transcutaneous PO2 and variability in relation to clinical procedures. However, long-term measurement of transcutaneous PO2 presents problems with documentation and analysis of the data. A new method, "dynamic transcutaneous PO2 histogram," was developed to present long-term transcutaneous PO2 monitoring data that may be applied in the future to on-line systems. |
