31
Q

A

Rapid evaluation

32
Q

What should the amount of oxygen ventilation be set to? (L)

A

10L/min

33
Q

What are the three rapid evaluation questions?

A

  • Does the baby have good muscle tone?
  • Is the baby breathing or crying?
34
Q

At birth, the baby’s first breaths help move _________ out of the airways.

A

Fluid

35
Q

During initial steps, if the baby is ___________ weeks gestation, do not dry the baby.

A

Less than 32

36
Q

When the baby stays with the mother for initial steps after birth, what should be monitored to determine if additional interventions are required?

A

breathing, tone and activity, color, temperature

37
Q

What is the purpose of the rapid evaluation of the newborn at birth?

A

determines if the baby can stay with the mother or should be moved to the radiant warmer

38
Q

What should you do if an apneic newborn is moved to a radiant warmer after birth and is still not breathing after the initial steps?

A

begin PPV immediately

39
Q

If a baby appears to be term, has good muscle tone but is nit breathing or crying, where should the baby receive initial steps?

A

At the radiant warmer

40
Q

If a newborn is not breathing or the heart rate is less than 110 bpm, you should begin PPV within the first ______ seconds after birth.

A

60

41
Q

If a baby is apneic, gasping or has a heart rate of less than 100 bpm after the initial steps of resuscitation _________ immediately.

A

Start PPV

42
Q

How do you estimate a newborn’s heart rate?

A

Count the number of beats in 6 seconds and multiply by 10

43
Q

If the baby is breathing after initial steps, you should assess and monitor the heart rate. It should be at least _______ bpm.

A

100

44
Q

When providing positive pressure ventilation ti a term newborn, what peak inspiratory pressure should you start with?

A

20-25 cm h2o

45
Q

It can be difficult to deliver PEEP with a self inflating bag. A T piece resuscitator delivers consistent inspiratory and PEEP.
What does PEEP help achieve?

A
  • stable lung inflation
  • prevents air spaces from collapsing during exhalation
  • removes fluid
46
Q

After the first 15 seconds of PPV, you do the first heart rate assessment. The heart rate is not increasing and the chest is not moving.
What should you do?

A

Begin MR, SOPA ventilation corrective steps immediately

47
Q

What are the first two steps of the MR. SOPA ventilation corrective steps that often solve the problem?

A

Mask adjustment and reposition head

48
Q

You are performing the MR. SOPA ventilation corrective steps on a term baby. You have adjusted the mask and repositioned the head. You have suctioned the mouth and nose and opened the mouth. There is no chest movement.
What is the next step?

A

Increase the pressure in 5 to 10 cm H2O increments, up to 40 cm H2O

49
Q

For babies greater than 35 weeks gestation, start PPV with _________ oxygen.

A

21-30%

50
Q

According to NRP 8th edition, for how long should umbilical cord clamping be delayed for eligible babies?

A

30-60 seconds

Where should the pulse oximeter be attached on the newborn?

A

Right hand or wrist

61
Q

You are managing the care of a newborn whose heart rate is more than 100 bpm and breathing. The pulse oximeter has a reliable signal and displays an oxygen saturation below target range for the baby’s age in minutes.
What is the most appropriate action?

A

Administer free flow oxygen

62
Q

What is the target oxygen saturation range for a baby that is 3 minutes old?

A

70-75%

63
Q

What is a reasonable oxygen concentration with which to begin free flow oxygen?

A

30%
