Comparison of Chest-to-Back Skin-to-Skin Contact and Chest-to-Chest Skin-to-Skin Contact on the Risk of Oxygen Desaturation and Change in Heart Rate in Low Birth Weight and/or Premature Babies: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Table 3

The total sum duration of SPO₂ desaturation below 90% and the deceleration of HR below 100 bpm in the CB and CC groups.

Outcomes		CB SSC; Frequency (%)	CC SSC; Frequency (%)
SpO2 in %	Regular or > 90 (perfect stability)	5840 (70.53%)	5060 (61.11%)
	Desaturation below 90	2440 (29.47%)	3220 (38.89%)
HR in bpm	Regular or ≥100 to ≤180 (perfect stability)	8250 (99.64%)	8150(98.43%)
	Deceleration below 100	30 (0.36%)	130 (1.57%)
