Polysomnography for the management of oxygen supplementation therapy in infants with chronic lung disease of prematurity.

Some infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) may require oxygen supplementation at home but a role for overnight polysomnography (PSG) in the management of home oxygen therapy has been rarely described. Forty-one infants with BPD born at less than 30 weeks gestational age were discharged with continuous home oxygen supplementation therapy between 2010 and 2013. PSG data were recorded on oxygen supplementation versus room air at median corrected age of 2 months (range 1-5 months) (first PSG after discharge to home).
