Abstract:

Newborn infants, mainly those born prematurely, often require respiratory support with a varying concentration of the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) to keep the peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) within the desired range to prevent adverse health effects due to both high and low SpO2. Manual adjustment, by nurses, is the common practice. However, the efficacy of the manual control is questionable. A novel automatic controller is evaluated clinically with application to one human subject at a high target SpO2. The automatic controller demonstrated the ability to improve oxygen saturation control over the everyday routine manual control by increasing the proportion of time where SpO2 values were within the desired range.
