Is anyone who works in a hospital doing car seat challenges with preemies willing to share your protocol with me? I have a pediatrician on another forum who has a patient who was sent home from the NICU with a car bed. She would like to do a car seat challenge in the office to see if this baby can graduate to a regular infant seat, but doesn't know the protocol. She says that the NICU the baby came from isn't being helpful.
Do you just measure oxygen saturation (easy to do in a pedi office) or other parameters like end-tidal CO2 (that most peds offices don't have the equipment for)?
(I'm a physician but not a pediatrician.)
