Comparison of arterial, venous and capillary blood gas Measurements in premature Babies in Newborn Intensive care unit

Amaç: Bu çalışmada kan gazı ölçümleri arasında bir ilişki olup olmadığı ve kapiller kan gazı örnekleri ile arter(A) ve venöz(V) değerler arasında bir ilişki kurulup kurulamayacağı araştırıldı. Materyal ve Metod: Yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitesi(YYBU)nde yatmakta olan göbek arter ve venöz kateter takılan hastalar çalışmaya alındı. Göbek arter ve ven, kapiller kan gazları alınarak pH, pCO2, BE, HCO3 ve oksijen saturasyonları arasındaki korelasyon araştırıldı. Bulgular:Ortalama gestasyon haftası 29.0 ± 2.5 (24-35) hafta ve ortalama doğum ağırlığı 1173 ± 421 (500-2200) g olan 111 prematür bebekten 114 eş zamanlı kan gazı örneği alındı. olgular üç gruba ayrıldı;

Yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitesindeki prematür bebeklerin arter, ven ve kapiller kan gazı değerlerinin karşılaştırılması

Purpose: To investigate if there were a correlation between blood gas measurements and if we could predict arterial (A) values from capillary (C) or venous (V) measurements in premature infants. Material and Methods: Premature infants with umbilical artery and venous catheters in Newborn Intensive Care Unit were enrolled in to the study. Umbilical arterial, umbilical venous and capillary blood gases were obtained and correlation of pH, pO2, pCO2, BE, HCO3 and oxygen saturation levels were studied. Results: 144 paired of blood gases were obtained from 111 premature infants with a mean gestational age of 29.0 ± 2.5 (24-35) weeks and birth weight of 1173 ± 421 (500-2200) g. Patients were divided in to three birth weights groups:
