Oxygen: term babies • Use 100%:if cyanosis or PPV required • Less than 100%: possibly also effective • If resuscitated with less than 100% oxygen: administer O2 up to 100% if no appreciable improvement within 90 sec following birth • If supplemental O2 is unavailable: use room air
Oxygen: preterms (<32 wk) • Use blender and pulse oximeter • Begin PPV with FiO2 0.21-1.0 • Adjust O2 to achieve SO2 of 95% • Decrease O2 if SO2 above 95%. • If HR <100 bpm: correct ventilation & use 100% O2 • If no facility of blender & pulse ox: manage as term babies • No convincing evidence that a brief period of 100% oxygen during resuscitation will be detrimental

Case - 1 • Term • Liquor clear • Crying • Actively moving
Case 2 • Term • Liquor clear • Poor cry • Limp
Case - 3 • Term woman, early labor • Membranes ruptured and thick meconium revealed • Breathing • Limp
Any difference ? Meconium thick or thin
No need for intrapartum suction Birth: assess HR, breathing and tone Vigorous: HR>100 good breathing Good tone Nonvigorous: any parameter abnormal Initial steps Tracheal suction
Tracheal suction • Two persons • Equipments • ETT • Suction • Connections
Tracheal suction • Place under radiant warmer • Postpone drying • Insert laryngoscope • Suction under direct vision • Insert tracheal tube • Apply suction while you withdraw
Initial tracheal suction Minimal meconium Significant meconium Assess HR Initial steps No significant bradycardia Significant bradycardia Repeat tracheal suction
