We lack normalized data for NIRS values in neonates. We sought normative values of NIRS and proposed that NIRS could better identify a safe oxygen flow rate compared to pulse oximetry (POX).Methods: This prospective cohort study compared POX and NIRS values in healthy infants in room air (n = 22) with BPD infants (n = 10) on oxygen (0.03, 0.06, 0.12 L/min).Results: In healthy infants, the average POX value was 97.8%, and NIRS was 78.24%. Time (% time) with hypoxia was similarly low using either POX or NIRS (3.5% and 1.4%). On oxygen, % time with hypoxemia was similarly low with both POX or NIRS (0.03 lpm: 2.35% POX and 0.01% NIRS; 0.06 lpm: 1.43% POX and 0.6% NIRS; 0.12 lpm: 1.46% POX and 0.2% NIRS). In contrast, the potential hyperoxia %time was higher using POX compared to NIRS (96.5% vs 47.9%) in room air healthy infants. Similarly, hyperoxia %time was more common with POX compared to NIRS, but there was no difference with increasing oxygen flow rates (0.03 lpm, 82.13% POX and 41.5% NIRS; 0.06 lpm: 92.49% POX and 34.4% NIRS; 0.12 lpm: 87.00% POX and 34.8% NIRS).Conclusion: We did not see a dose response correlation between oxygen flow rate and time spent in the hyperoxemic range across different flow rates by POX or cerebral NIRS. We did not see a benefit of NIRS in setting home oxygen flow rates.Keywords: near infrared spectroscopy, hyperoxia, home oxygen
