Mean pulmonary excretion rate of carbon monoxide in 13 premature babies on ventilators was significantly higher (p less than 0.001) than that of 19 healthy infants born at full term. This correlated with carboxyhaemoglobin concentrations in blood, indicating that the premature infants on ventilators produced abnormally large amounts of bilirubin.
13名使用呼吸机的早产儿的一氧化碳平均肺排泄率显著高于19名足月出生的健康婴儿(p小于0.001)。这与血液中的碳氧血红蛋白浓度相关,表明使用呼吸机的早产儿产生了异常大量的胆红素。
