Abstract
Pulse oximetry screening adapted for perinatal care in home births and early postdelivery hospital discharge assisted the diagnosis of CCHDs before signs of cardiovascular collapse. High prenatal detection led to a moderate sensitivity of pulse oximetry screening. The screening also detected noncardiac illnesses in 0.6% of all infants, including infections and respiratory morbidity, which led to early recognition and referral for treatment.
