major CHD (Congenital Heart Disease) screening by POX (pulse oximetry) in sea-level areas is not fit for low, medium and high altitude areas, but the normal range of pulse oximetry at different altitude areas has not been studied before, so the current screening technology can only be used in sea-level areas, but not for newborns in low, medium and high altitude areas. We need to carry out a research to clarify the range of POX and make sure the threshold of POX in major CHD screening in different altitude areas of China.
