- ItemDiagnóstico de los trastornos respiratorios del sueño en recién nacidos con sospecha de apneas: comparación entre la saturometría nocturna y la poligrafía(2017) Zenteno, D.; Bancalari, A.; Navarro, X.; Diaz, V.; Rodriguez-Nunez, I.; Brockmann Veloso, Pablo EdmundoIntroduction: Night Continuous Saturometry (CSO2) is used in Neonatal Units to detect events of hypoxemia in Newborns (NB) with apnea episodes. Polygraphy (PG) has a larger number of measu- ring channels. Our goal was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of CSO2 compared to Polygra- phy in NB with suspected sleep apneas. Patients and Method: Results of CSO2 and PG performed simultaneously in RN with suspected apneas were retrospectively analyzed over a three-year period. A 2-channel Masimo Radical-7® pulse oximeter and an Apnea Link Plus® polygraph with 5 simulta- neous recording channels were used. Altered PG was defined as: desaturation index under 80% per hour ≥ 1 and/or number of desaturations under 80% ≥ 20 seconds greater than one in the whole va- lidated registry and/or hypoapnea apnea index ≥ 1 event per hour. In parallel, altered SpO2C was de- fined when one or both of the 80% saturation criteria were altered. Sensitivity, specificity, predictive values and Likelihood Ratio (LLR) for CSO2 were calculated. Results were expressed in absolute value, with 95% confidence interval. Results: Simultaneous 40 CSO2 and PG were performed; 80% (32/40) of them were preterm infants, 60% (24/40) males. 38% (15/40) of the CSO2 and 15% (6/40) of the PGs were altered (p < 0.05). CSO2 has a 100% Sensitivity, 74% Specificity, 40% VPP, 100% VPN, LLR + 3.78 and LLR-0. Conclusion: In the studied NB, CSO2 has a high diagnostic value, however, it may present false positives; It is suggested to use as a screening method and to perform diagnostic confirmation with another sleep test, such as PG.
