Neonatal Resuscitation
The following questions should be answered after
every birth:
• XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Is the amniotic fluid clear of AHA/ILCOR: 2010
XXXXXXXXXXX
meconium?
• Is the baby breathing or
crying?
• Is there a good muscle tone?
AHA/ILCOR: 2005
• XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Is the color pink?
• Was the baby born at term?
If the answer is no to any of these consider resuscitation
ILCOR Guidelines Newborn Resuscitation
Changes from 2005 -2010
•Timing the first 60 seconds only
•Progression to the next step following initial evaluation is
defined by heart rate and respiration
•For babies born at term it is best to begin resuscitation with
air rather than 100% oxygen
• Evidence does not support or refute routine endotracheal
suctioning of infants born through meconium-stained
amniotic fluid, even when the newborn is depressed
• Chest compression- ventilation ratio 3:1 unless the arrest is
known to be of cardiac etiology. Then higher ratio should
be considered (15:2)
•Hypothermia in moderate to severe HIE
•Cord clamping late, in asphyxia not known
ILCOR Neonatal Resuscitation Guidelines 2010
3 questions:
Term, Breathing, Tone
Timing: First 60 seconds only
Start with air, consider SpO2
Start Ventilation:
Heart rate < 100 bpm
and or apnea/insufficent
breathing
Perlman J et al, Circulation 2010;122 (Suppl 2) S516-538
Treatment Recommendation
In term infants receiving resuscitation at birth with positive
pressure ventilation, it is best to begin with air rather than
100% oxygen. If despite effective ventilation there is no
increase in heart rate or if oxygenation (guided by oximetry)
remains unacceptable, use of a higher concentration of
oxygen should be considered.

Four Categories
A
Airways
• Initial steps of stabilisation (assess the airways,
positioning, stimulating, dry and provide warmth)
B
• Ventilation (including bag-mask or bag -tube ventilation)
C
• Chest compressions
Breathing
Circulation
D
Drugs
• Medications or volume expansion
A: Airways
Stabilisation and suctioning
Suctioning of upper airways
Routine intrapartum oropharyngeal and
nasopharyngeal suctioning for infants
born with clear or meconium stained
amniotic fluid is no longer
recommended
ILCOR 2010
•A vigorous newborn who starts to breath within 10-15
seconds does not need suctioning routinely
•Deep suctioning should be avoided especially the first 5
min of life. It may induce apnea, bradycardia and
bronchospasm
•If suctioning, always suction the mouth before through
the nose to minimize risk of aspiration
B: ventilation
The most important is to ventilate the lungs. Training is needed
Increasing heart rate is the
primary sign of effective
ventilation during resuscitation
What is an adequate heart rate?
Observe also:
•Improving color
•Spontaneous breathing
•Improving muscle tone
50 percentile for heart rate
is 99 bpm at one min
Dawson et al, 2010
Check these signs of improvement
after 30 seconds of PPV.
This requires the assistance of
another person

Assessment if resuscitation is stepped up
3 vital characteristics
•Heart rate
•Respirations
•State of oxygenation
”The most sensitive indicator of
successful response to each
step is an increase in heart rate”
Initial breaths and pressures
• Initiation of intermittent positivepressure ventilation at birth can
be accomplished with either
shorter
or
Heart rate increase is more
longer inspiratory times. Important to observe than chest rise
• Initial peak inflating pressures needed are
variable- start with 20 cm H2O may be
effective but 30-40 Cm H2O may be
needed.
• PEEP is likely to be beneficial

Chest compressions - indication
Chest compressions should be performed if the
heart
rate is < 60 beats/minute, despite adequate
ventilation
start with a 3:1 ratio - that is 90:30
0.8 per 1000 term or near term infants
2-10% in preterm infants
No human data have identified an optimal compression to
ventilation
ratio for cardiopulmonary resuscitation in any age
Goals: Reperfuse the heart (obtain diastolic pressure)
Reperfuse the Brain

Adenaline/Epinephrine dose
If adequate ventilation and chest compressions
have failed to increase heart rate to > 60 bpm,
then it is reasonable to use adrenaline despite
the lack of human neonatal data.

Dawson, Vento, Finer, Rich, Saugstad, Morley, Davis J Pediatrics 2011
Guidelines for optimizing oxygenation after birth
in ELBW infants
At 90s review the infants HR, SpO2 and breathing efforts
If the baby is breathing, or is well ventilated, and HR is
rising, and the SpO2 > 10th O2 is not required
If O2 is needed, FiO2 should be titrated against SpO2 to
keep it >10th and < 90th
SpO2 < 10th and or HR is not rising or continues to fall
increase FiO2 until the SpO2 >10th and < 90th
Wait at least 30 sec after each change until HR improves and
SpO2 between 10 to 90th
If SpO2 > 90th reduce FiO2
Continue titrating FiO2 according to infant’s response

What about PCO2 ?
• PCO2 is high in asphyxia
• Hypercapnia restores cerebral circulation
faster than normocapnia
• Hypocapnia increases risk of brain injury
• Perhaps we need to be more careful in
the DR ventilating even term babies?
• Routine monitoring of PCO2 is needed
