Late Breaking Abstract - Fetal blood hypoxia/reoxygenation swings are reduced by placental oxygen transfer in a model ovine pregnancy with sleep apnea

Conclusion: This study provides novel insights into fetal oxygenation in a model of gestational OSA, and highlights the importance of further understanding the impact of sleep-disordered-breathing on fetal and offspring development.
