extrauterine life requiring little or no assistance.
• 10% of newborns need some assistance.
• Only 1% require extensive resuscitation
Rate :
40 to 60 breaths per minute
“Breathe, Two, Three; Breathe, Two, Three; Breathe, Two, Three.”
PIP :
20 to 25cm H2O
PEEP :
Initial setting is 5 cm H2O
Assessment after PPV
Intubation
When to intubate?
• If PPV with a face mask does not result in clinical improvement, an
endotracheal tube or laryngeal mask is strongly recommended to improve
ventilation efficacy
• If PPV lasts for more than a few minutes, an endotracheal tube or a laryngeal
mask may improve the efficacy and ease of assisted ventilation.
• Insertion of an endotracheal tube is strongly recommended in the following
circumstances:
• If chest compressions are necessary
• An endotracheal tube provides the most reliable airway access in special
circumstances, such as (1) stabilization of a newborn with a suspected
diaphragmatic hernia, (2) for surfactant administration, and (3) for direct
tracheal suction if the airway is obstructed by thick secretions.
