ABSTRACT
Introduction: congenital heart diseases are the second leading cause of mortality in the first year of life in Mexico, prompting their mandatory implementation of all newborns in 2019.
Objective: analyze the five-year results of implementing cardiological screening using pulse oximetry (OximP) in a private hospital.
Material and methods: an observational, descriptive, retrospective study of all cardiological screenings from 2017 to 2021 was carried out. The results were collected from all the patients in the physiological nursery, considering occasions and moments of screening, as well as the state of maturation and the newborn's skin color. A bivariate analysis of the validity conditions of the screening was performed among the newborns with the χ
2 test. A statistical significance level of the p < 0.01.
Results: the rate of newborns with suspected critical congenital heart disease (CCHD) was lower than that reported worldwide (≈ 8:5,000). Increasingly lower positivity rates were observed over the years, a statistically significant trend showing that staff training and adequate equipment contributed to the decrease in the frequency of false positive tests.
Conclusions: screening using OximP is valuable and specific. However, various factors during the process must be guaranteed for the validity of the results.
