Description:

The CCT was held only once. Prior to the start of data collection the patients were placed in supine position, with the slope of the headboard of the bed in 30 degrees for collection of signs of respiratory distress (runs), RR(respiratory rate)(timer for 1 minute); HR (heart rate) and SpO2(oxygen saturation) through pulse oximetry in infants without atelectasis.
