Oxygen Targets in Neonatal Pulmonary Hypertension: Individualized, “Precision-Medicine” Approach

Satyan Lakshminrusimha, Steven H. AbmanUniversity of California, Davis Children’s Hospital. University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus.United States Clinics in PerinatologyClin Perinatol 2024; 51: 77-94DOI: 10.1016/j.clp.2023.12.003 AbstractOxygen is a specific pulmonary vasodilator. Hypoxemia causes pulmonary vasoconstriction, and normoxia leads to pulmonary vasodilation. However, hyperoxia does not enhance pulmonary vasodilation but causes oxidative stress. There are no clinical
