NRP 7TH EDITION PART 2
A laboring woman received a narcotic medication for pain relief 1 hour before delivery.The baby
does not have spontaneous respirations and does not improve with stimulation.Your first priority
is to - (ANSWER)Start positive-pressure ventilation
During resuscitation, a baby is responding to positive-pressure ventilation with a rapidly
increasing heart rate. Her heart rate and oxygen saturation suddenly worsen.She has decreased
breath sounds on the left side and transillumination also reveals a bright glow on the left
side.What is the most likely cause of this distress? - (ANSWER)Left-sided pneumothorax
Which of the following is true about the preparation and resources needed for a very preterm
birth? - (ANSWER)Prepare the preheated radiant warmer with a thermal mattress, plastic wrap
or bag, and a hat.
Which of the following may be associated with delayed cord clamping in vigorous preterm
newborns? - (ANSWER)Decreased need for blood transfusions
For a newborn weighing 1 kg, what dose of 1:10,000 (0.1 mg/mL) concentration of intravenous
epinephrine is indicated? - (ANSWER)0.1 mL
A baby required ventilation and chest compressions. After 60 seconds of chest compressions, the
electronic cardiac monitor indicates a heart rate of 70 beats per minute. What is your next action?
- (ANSWER)Stop chest compressions; continue positive-pressure ventilation.
How soon after administration of intravenous epinephrine should you pause compressions and
reassess the baby's heart rate? - (ANSWER)1 minute
What is the preferred method for assessing heart rate during chest compressions? -
(ANSWER)Electronic cardiac (ECG) monitoring
