简要总结
Previous studies have examined the usefulness of pulse oximetry or oxygen saturation to screen for left-sided cardiac lesions. These studies have shown that the occurrence of critical congenital cardiac malformations among asymptomatic newborns is high; the technique of pulse oximetry is reliable for detection of ductal dependant left-sided lesions, simple to operate(requires little time and can be done in the newborn nursery) and is cost effective; there is effective follow-up test (heart ultrasound) and available interventions have an effect on outcome for diagnosed newborns. The importance of this research project is to examine the overall helpfulness of measuring oximetry in newborn infants using somatic oximetry, as well ast to prepare for a population based study in the state of Florida.
详细描述
This study will evaluate up to 50 unaffected newborns and up to 10 known congenital heart disease (CHD) newborns using a new oximetry system. This system is interfaced to a laptop computer which computes the difference between central and lower extremity peripheral values, upper and lower body peripheral values, and records all data. This information may differentiate unaffected newborns and CHD newborns, and determine the effectiveness of pulse oximetry as a newborn screening for congenital cardiovascular malformations.

结局指标
主要结局
To measure the oxygen saturation using pulse oximetry.
时间窗: Baseline
The oxygen saturation will be measured by pulse oximetry on an infant's skin on the forehead and thigh. These two numbers will be recorded as whole numbers on the machine and will be compared to both groups of infants.
