The proposed research evaluates tissue oxygenation (StO2) as measured by resonance raman
spectroscopy (RRS) in premature infants with and without patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). This
is a prospective observational study of infants born at < 30 weeks of gestation. The primary
aim of this study is to determine if the difference in pre- and post-ductal StO2 as detected
by RRS is more significant in premature infants with PDA in comparison to infants without
PDA. The secondary aim of this study is to determine if the difference in pre- and
post-ductal StO2 as detected by RRS is more significant in infant who develop serious adverse
events.
