WARNING !
It is absolutely essential that elevated oxygen
concentrations are selected on the basis of
arterially measured oxygen partial pressure in
the blood of the baby. This is the only way of
minimizing the risk of both hyperoxemia,
which might cause, above all, retrolenta
fibroplasia, and hypoxemia which might
contribute to intraventricular hemorrhage and
damage to the baby's brain.
