Transmitted Home Oximetry and Duration of Home Oxygen in Premature Infants
CONCLUSIONS:
RHO was effective in reducing the duration of HOT in premature infants. Parent quality of life improved after discontinuation. RHO allows physicians to determine which infants can be weaned and which need prolonged oxygen therapy between monthly visits.

Utilization Trends of Respiratory Medication in Premature Infants Discharged on Home Oxygen Therapy
CONCLUSION:
Respiratory prescribing patterns for infants on HOT are highly variable. Utilization of IS was not associated with shorter duration of HOT.
