heart rate and oximetry
breath sounds chest |
|
|
mask A
|
|
You have started positive`pressure ventilation on an apneic newborn. The heart rate is not rising, oxygen sateration is not improving, and your assistant does not hear bilateral breath sounds.
List 3 possibilities of what may be wrong. |
There may be an inadequate seal of the mask on the face.
The head may need to be repositioned to open the airway. Secretions may need to be suctioned. |
|
If, after performing the ventilation corrective sequence and making appropriate adjustments, you are unable to obtain a rising heart rate or bilateral breath sounds or see chest movement with positive-pressure ventilation, you usually will have to insert a(n) __________ or a(n)__________.

endotracheal
laryngeal mask airway |
|
