Brief Summary
The objective of this study is to determine the multifactorial relationship between the effective fraction of inspired oxygen (Effective-FiO2) and the FiO2 in the gas delivered by the nasal cannula (NC-FiO2), NC flow rate, spontaneous minute ventilation and other patient characteristics in premature infants who receive supplemental oxygen via nasal cannula (NC).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Nasal cannula FiO2
FiO2 necessary to maintain the effective FiO2 (measured at the hypopharynx) at the basal level at different nasal cannula flow rates.
from birth upto 40 weeks corrected postmenstrual age
Interventions
This is a crossover study where observations will be obtained at five nasal cannula flow rates: 0.5, 1, 2, 4 and 6 liters per minute.
Eligibility Criteria
Premature infants admitted to the newborn ICU will be screened. Infants who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled in the study after written informed parental consent is obtained:
You may qualify if:
- Premature infants born between 23 and 30 weeks of gestational age
- Receiving supplemental oxygen via nasal cannula
- Parental informed consent
You may not qualify if:
- Major congenital anomalies
- Clinically unstable
