Reference intervals for end-tidal carbon monoxide of preterm neonates

Objectives We constructed reference intervals for end-tidal carbon monoxide (ETCOc) levels of neonates 28 0/7 to 34 6/7 weeks gestation in order to assess hemolytic rate. Study design This is a prospective four-NICU study in Bangkok, Thailand, and Utah, USA. Results Of 226 attempted measurements, 92...

Zusammenfassung:Objectives We constructed reference intervals for end-tidal carbon monoxide (ETCOc) levels of neonates 28 0/7 to 34 6/7 weeks gestation in order to assess hemolytic rate. Study design This is a prospective four-NICU study in Bangkok, Thailand, and Utah, USA. Results Of 226 attempted measurements, 92% were successful. Values from day 1 through 28 were charted and upper (>95th percentile) reference interval limits calculated. During the entire 28 days, the ETCOc upper reference intervals from babies in Bangkok were higher than those in Utah ( p   0.1). Similar to term neonates, preterm neonates in Bangkok and Utah had higher ETCOc values during the first 48 h after birth than thereafter ( p
