Abstract
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a serious disease affecting premature infants. Rates of ROP increase with decreasing gestational age. Duration of oxygen exposure is correlated with ROP. Many studies evaluating oxygen have been performed to assess impact on ROP. This article describes recent findings for oxygen saturation target studies and suggests area of future study for ROP.Entities:
