CPAP pressure did not need to be increased further as the O2 requirement came down to 40% and remained between 30% and 40% for the subsequent 24 hours. Initial capillary blood gas at 2 hours of age (on CPAP 5 cm, FiO2 0.35) showed: pH 7.28; pCO2 7.05; pO2 7.15 and BE –2. Repeat capillary blood gas at 4 hours (on CPAP 5 cm, FiO2 0.35) showed: pH 7.30; pCO2 6.95; pO2...
