Data Collection for Direct Impact:
The percent of time that neonatal patients, under 32 weeks, that received supplemental oxygen are kept within the accepted SpO2 range.
One approach could be at minimum, random sampling of 3-4 babies on supplemental oxygen on different shifts during one week each month. Nursing shifts range from 6 up to 12 hours across the world and nurse to patient ratios are also variable. For this reason, the data collection method should be tailored by hospital, and by unit.
