Approximately 10% of newborns require some assistance to begin breathing at birth.
Approximately 1% require extensive resuscitative measures.

APNEA
• Primary – deprivation of oxygen → rapid breathing → resp stop →HR↓ → apnea
*** will re- establish breathing with oxygen and stimulation
• Secondary –If asphyxia continues →deep gasping resp → HR ↓ & BP ↓ →last gasp →apnea
*** unresponsive to oxygen and stimulation →PPV must be started

• Always assume infant has secondary Apnea & commence Resuscitation
![Page 6: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Resuscitation Assignments
• Team Leader- Airway
• Second Rescuer- Pulse Check (HR) Chest Compression• Third Rescuer- Medications Equipment
![Page 7: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Core Knowledge and Skills
• Airways - Establish Clear Airway• Breathing- Ventilation & Oxygenation• Circulation- Adequate Cardiac Output• Drugs • Environment - Reduce Heat Loss
![Page 8: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Steps in Resuscitation - ABCDE
• Airway – open & clear airway – Suction mouth and then nose , trachea if needed – No more than 5cms & no longer than 5 secs – Mechanical suction - vacuum does not exceed 100 mmHg (5litres) – Airway tube / ET tube
• If nose cleared first the infant may gasp and aspirate secretions in the pharynx
![Page 9: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Airway
DO NOT SUCTION IF AIRWAY IS CLEAR– Positioning
• Supine or lateral • Head in neutral or slightly extended
position - Avoid overextension or flexion
![Page 10: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
CLEARING THE AIRWAY OF MECONIUM
Current recommendations No longer advise routine intrapartum oropharyngeal and
nasopharyngeal suctioning for infants born to mothers with meconium staining of
amniotic fluid
![Page 11: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Suction
• Suction - Bulb syringe DeLee mucus trap Suction catheters (6F, 8F, 10F)
Feeding tube with syringe Meconium aspirator
![Page 12: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Steps in Resuscitation - ABCDE
• Breathing -Initiate breathing - Tactile stimulation - PPV – bag & mask – bag & ET tube• Assessment of respiratory effort and color
![Page 13: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Tactile Stimulation
• Drying• Suctioning• Slapping or flicking the soles of the feet• Rubbing the back gently
• Do not waste time continuing tactile stimulation if there is no response after 10 - 15 seconds.
![Page 14: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Harmful actions
• Slapping back• Squeezing rib cage• Forcing thigh onto abdomen• Dilating anal sphincter• Using hot or cold compression or bath• Blowing cold air onto face• Burning placenta
![Page 15: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Use of oxygen duringneonatal resuscitation
• Indications for oxygen administration – Cyanosis – Respiratory distress - Give free flowing oxygen 5L/min
• Use – 100% supplemental oxygen• If oxygen unavailable - use room air to deliver
positive-pressure ventilation
![Page 16: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Steps in Resuscitation - ABCDE
Indications for PPV / Bag-Valve-Mask Ventilation
• Apnoeic • Gasping respiration • HR < 100 bpm • Persistent central cyanosis despite 100% O2 • 40-60 breaths/min • No response
![Page 17: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Bag-Valve-Mask Ventilation
• Neutral Position of Head• Tight Mask Seal• Avoid Pressure on Trachea•Assisted rate= 40 to 60 bpm
![Page 18: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Bag-Valve-Mask Ventilation
• Signs of Adequate Ventilation: - Bilateral Chest Expansion - Bilateral Breath Sounds - Adequate Heart Rate & Color
![Page 19: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Bag and mask
Ventilate for 30 seconds:
Rate: 40-60 /minPressure: Visible rise and fall of chest
Continue ventilation Initiate chest compression
Consider intubation
HR > 100 bpm:Check for spontaneous
respirations
HR < 60 HR >100
![Page 20: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Bag and mask the most important tool in newborn resuscitation
![Page 21: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
ENDOTRACHEAL TUBE PLACEMENT
• ET intubation - indicated at several points during neonatal resuscitation:
1. Tracheal suctioning for meconium 2. Bag-mask ventilation is ineffective / prolonged3.When chest compressions are performed4.When ET administration of medications is required5.Congenital diaphragmatic hernia or extremely low
birth weight (<1000 g)
![Page 22: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Place a pillow under the head and neck but NOT under the shoulders
This allows a straight line of
vision from the mouth to the vocal cords
The laryngoscope is
introduced into the right hand side of the mouth (it is held by the left hand
![Page 23: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• The tongue is swept to the left and the tip of the blade is advanced until a fold of skin / cartilage is visualised at twelve o’ clock
• This is the epiglottis, and this sits over the glottis (the opening of the larynx) during swallowing
![Page 24: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• The tip of the blade is advanced to the base of the epiglottis, known as the vallecula, and the entire laryngoscope is lifted upwards and outwards
• This flips the epiglottis upwards and exposes the glottis below
• An opening is seen with two white vocal cords forming a triangle on each side
![Page 25: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• The tip of the ET tube is advanced through the vocal cords and once the cuff has passed through, one stops advancing The tube is secured at this level and the cuff inflated
![Page 26: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

O2 for 30 seconds
2. Heart Rate 60 to 80 but not Increasing (±) - controversial
![Page 29: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
2 techniques
• 2 thumb (preferred) • 2 finger • 3:1 ratio • 1/3 of AP diameter
![Page 30: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Chest compression
1.Thumb technique: - Place thumbs side by side or one
over the other above xyphoid - other fingers provide support for the back
- Depress the sternum to a depth of 1/3 of the anterior/posterior diameter of the chest
- Your thumbs should remain in contact with the chest at all times
- Rate - 3:1

Rapid assessment - 5 characteristics
• Full-term gestation?
• Amniotic fluid clear of meconium ?
• Breathing or crying?
• Good muscle tone?
• Color pink?
![Page 41: Resuscitation of a Newborn](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55505f09b4c905ae3f8b52a0/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
If the answer to any of these assessment is "no"
• Initial steps in stabilization ( warmth, position, clear airway, dry, stimulate)
• Ventilation
• Chest compressions
• Administration of epinephrine and/or volume expansion
