7% routine use of pulse oximetry to supplement postnatal examination
Pulse oximetry screening for critical congenital heart defectsin asymptomatic newborn babies: a systematic review andmeta-analysis.Shakila Thangaratinam, Kiritrea Brown, Javier Zamora, Khalid S Khan, Andrew K Ewer Lancet. 2012 Jun 30;379(9835):2459-64. doi: 10.1016/S0140-6736(12)60107-X.

Pulse oximetry is highly specifi c for detection of critical congenital heart defects with moderate sensitivity, that meets criteria for universal screening.

Conclusion
Shift of opinion of among UK Neonatologists regarding pulse oximetry screening with a
significant majority now in favour, albeit with some reservations
The impact of pre- discharge pulse oximetry screening in a Regional Neonatal unit Singh A, Rasiah SV, Ewer A
To evaluate the impact of routine pulse oximetry screening on the rate of unexpected admissions and need for echocardiography.
To review the outcomes of babies admitted as a result of positive pulse oximetry screening.
Routine pre-discharge pulse oximetry screening at BWHPre and postductal SatsAbnormal Test: <95% or a difference of >2%Expedited Clinical ExaminationRepeat Pulse Ox in 1-2 hrsTest Positive
2 abnormal pulse ox readings1 abnormal pulse ox reading + abnormal
Clinical Exam
MethodsRetrospective review of all unexpected
admissions to the unit
April’10 –March’12
Review ofIndication for admissionClinical diagnosisManagement Outcome
Results Total admissions: 2137 Unexpected admissions: 1021
Test positive pulse oximetry: 123 (12%)
Congenital heart lesions: Critical CHD: 4 Serious CHD: 1 Significant CHD: 3
Critical - HLHS, PA/IVS, TGA or IAA or dying and/or intervention in 1st month with CoA, AS, PS, ToF, PA/VSD or TAPVD
Serious – Requiring intervention in 1st year
Significant - Requiring FU > 6 mths or drug Rx
CHD Classification
Congenital pneumonia: 33
Sepsis: 17
PPHN: 8
MAS: 3
TTN requiring oxygen: 21
Hyperinsulinaemia: 1
Pneumothorax: 1
Depressed skull fracture: 1
Early onset jaundice: 1
Congenital Pneumonia- ↑inflam markers ± +ve culture, X-Ray changes, O2 requirement, abs ≥ 5 days.
Sepsis - ↑ inflammatory markers ± culture +ve, abs ≥ 5 days
MAS – h/o meconium , respiratory distress, O2 requirement, X-Ray changes
TTN requiring oxygen: Tachypnoea with X-Ray changes of fluid retention, oxygen requirement, no rise in inflam markers or +ve culture
Other significant diagnosis
ResultsTransitional circulation: 29 (23%)
No collapse in the postnatal wards during study period
Echocardiograms performed for Test Postive pulse Ox: 39/123 (32%)
Abnormal ECHO’s: 16/39 (41%)
ConclusionsTest positive pulse oximetry resulted in
approx one admission per week
It leads to a modest increase in the number of echocardiograms performed.
Routine use of Pulse oximetry identifies babies with illnesses, which if not identified early could potentially lead to postnatal collapse
