How Do Healthcare Providers Monitor Infants on Respiratory Support?

Monitoring is essential for infants receiving respiratory support. Key parameters include:
- Oxygen Saturation: Continuous pulse oximetry to ensure adequate oxygenation.
- Blood Gases: Periodic arterial or capillary blood gases to assess oxygen and carbon dioxide levels.
- Chest X-rays: To monitor lung expansion and check for complications like pneumothorax.
- Clinical Assessment: Regular evaluation of respiratory rate, effort, and overall clinical status.
