Although home oxygen use is uncommon in later-gestation infants, the greater overall numbers of later-gestation infants contribute significantly to the increased need for home oxygen for infants at NICU discharge. Neither respiratory failure nor lengthy hospitalization is a prerequisite for home oxygen use at later gestational age.
