In infants with fluctuations in Spo(2), automated Fio(2) adjustment improved maintenance of the intended Spo(2) range led to reduced time with high Spo(2) and more-frequent episodes with Spo(2) between 80% and 86%.

In this group of infants, cFIO(2) was at least as effective as a fully dedicated nurse in maintaining SpO(2) within the target range, and it may be more effective than a nurse working under routine conditions. We speculate that during long-term use, cFIO(2) may save nursing time and reduce the risks of morbidity associated with supplemental oxygen and episodes of hypo- and hyperoxemia.
