September 9, 2013 updated by: Tomasz Szczapa, Poznan University of Medical Sciences

A Comparison of Cerebral Tissue Oxygenation Values in Newborns Measured Simultaneously Using Laser and LED NIRS Oximeters

The aim of the study is to compare the values of cerebral tissue oxygenation measured simultaneously using laser light (FORE-SIGHT) and LED (INVOS) cerebral oximeters.

Study Population

Clinically stable, spontaneously breathing newborns will be included in the study. Enrolled patients will be divided into two groups: 15 term (≥37 weeks GA) and 15 preterm (32-37 weeks GA) newborns. NIRS measurements will be performed on the 1st and 3rd day of life.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Clinically stable
  • Spontaneously breathing newborns

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Congenital heart defects or anomalies of central nervous system
  • Prematurity below 32 GA
  • Respiratory distress

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Comparison of variability and repeatability of the recorded cerebral tissue oxygenation signals between two groups of patients (clinical stable preterm and term newborns)
Time Frame: 6 hours

There are two FDA-approved near infrared cerebral oximeters:

  1. FORE-SIGHT- which uses laser light
  2. INVOS 5100- which uses light emmiting diode.

Measurements in adult patients have showed that FORE-SIGHT provides more stable signal. Purpose of our study is to compare these two devices in newborn patients.
