PS-032 Perfusion Index In Preterm Infants During The First 3 Days Of Life

Background and aimThe waveform amplitude produced by pulse oximeters can be expressed as an index of pulsatile vs. non-pulsatile signal. This perfusion index (PI) has been shown to correlate with cardiac output, stroke volume, and superior vena cava flow. The aim was to gather PI reference data in p...

Zusammenfassung:Background and aimThe waveform amplitude produced by pulse oximeters can be expressed as an index of pulsatile vs. non-pulsatile signal. This perfusion index (PI) has been shown to correlate with cardiac output, stroke volume, and superior vena cava flow. The aim was to gather PI reference data in preterm infants and to explore if the PI is associated with common clinical parameters.Patients/methodsThe PI was recorded in 312 neonates
