Outcomes
EVENTS, EVENT
Condition B (positional intervention) demonstrated lower number of events, smaller percentage time with SpOMarginal mean estimates for number of events, percentage of time spent with SpO
Back transformed estimates and 95% CIs.There was a statistically significant increase in percentage time with SpODescriptive statistics for event frequency and oximetry by day and sequence are given in Table Box plots of (a) number of events (b) logit transformed percentage of time with peripheral oxygen saturation less than 80% and (c) logit transformed percentage of time spent with peripheral oxygen saturation 88% or more; presented in treatment order of (a), (b) and (c) for each sequence. The first letter in the treatment sequence corresponds to the treatment on day 1, the second letter treatment on day 2 and the third letter on day 3.No carryover effect was present in any models evaluated. Two outliers (StudyID 20, day 1 and StudyID 52, day 2) were present in sequence BAC for number of events, identified on scatterplot of deviance by treatment sequence; however, these were not present on Pearson plots and their exclusion did not significantly change treatment estimates or between‐infant variance. The relationships and size of effects did not change when LMM was run using the log(number of events) compared to (GL(M)M). Similar results were obtained for both miTT and PP data sets for all outcomes (Tables
