BERLANGA BOLADO, Oscar Manuel; RIVERA VAZQUEZ, Patricia y MARTINEZ PADRON, Hadassa Yuef. Sensitivity and specificity of pulse oximetry to detect congenital heart disease in newborns. Horiz. sanitario [online]. 2023, vol.22, n.2, pp.271-278. Epub 29-Ene-2024. ISSN 2007-7459. https://doi.org/10.19136/hs.a22n2.5182.
Objective:
To determine the sensitivity and specificity of pulse oximetry to detect congenital heart disease in healthy newborns in rooming-in.
Material and methods:
The study is multicenter, prospective and cross-sectional, evaluating patients from the Regional Hospital of High Specialty "Bicentenario 2010" and the General Hospital “Dr. Norberto Treviño Zapata”, in the city of Victoria Tamaulipas, in a period from march 2015 to March 2017. Pulse oximetry was determined in healthy newborns before hospital discharge.
Results:
511 newborns were studied. The sensitivity detected was 88.89% and a specificity of 99.80%.
Conclusion:
Congenital heart disease in healthy newborns in rooming-in can be determined by pre- and post-ductal pulse oximetry.
