Orientation to the world of newborn Topics covered The NICU ◦ where to go ◦ what to do Delivery room set up Review of neonatal resuscitation Learning Objectives Understand ◦ various mode of thermoregulation ◦ importance of communication ◦ steps in resuscitation of newborn The NICU 2nd floor at Lakeside Hospital Please be at NICU by 7.30am 3 minute scrub prior to entering NICU Wear gloves for all patient contact Wash hands between patients Please use the baby’s individual stethoscope (found at baby’s bedside) Scrub before entering NICU Waterless Hand Wash The NICU Attend at least 1 delivery with NNP or residents If parents ask questions, please refer them to medical team Mute cell phone & talk softly around babies Please wear scrubs while in the NICU The NICU People you will see in the NICU ◦ Charge nurse ◦ Bedside nurse (usually have 2-3 babies per nurse) ◦ Respiratory therapists (usually 2 in NICU) ◦ Neonatal nurse practitioners Nancy Wood Kathy Smith Shelly Holcomb Julie Evans Angie Noya The NICU Assigned patients by the residents ◦ Review history and physical with residents ◦ Pre-round with residents ◦ Review laboratory and radiology results with residents ◦ Talk to RNs about patient and prior to examining patient Isolation Room – Gown & Glove Isolette The NICU Present patients during rounds (usually starts around 8.30-9.00am) ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ Brief history and current problems Issues overnight Vital signs, current weight & change in weight Brief review of physical examination The NICU Present patients during rounds ◦ Intake (Type of feeds, TPN, amount, nipple/gavage) ◦ Total intake (mL/kg/day) and output (mL/kg/hr) ◦ Laboratory, radiology, consult results ◦ List of medications ◦ Assessment and plan for the day The NICU Rounds usually end by 11.30am Noon conference (for residents) Please remind attending and residents on days you will not be present in the afternoon In the afternoon or prior to leaving for the day ◦ Check up on your patient ◦ Review assessment and plan with residents The Delivery Room Need to wear ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ Head cover Mask Shoe cover You may be asked to scrub and wear scrub gown to receive baby Stand around radiant warmer Speak softly Be aware of sterile fields! Hats, masks, shoe covers before entering OR Scrub area in OR Neonatal Resuscitation Most newborn transition to extrauterine life without complications ~10% require some intervention 10-20% from above require aggressive intervention Preparation prior to delivery Adequate personnel ◦ Open communication with OB team ◦ Should have minimum of 3 person trained in NRP for high risk deliveries ◦ Good communication within team ◦ Good coordination of function for each team member Preparation prior to delivery Obtain information from OB nurses ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ Gestational age of baby Why are we delivering? Is meconium present (if membranes ruptured) Any pertinent maternal history? Fever Pertinent labs Complications during pregnancy/labor Pass above information to rest of team! Preparation prior to delivery Equipments ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ Radiant warmer Warm blankets (lots of it!) Stethoscope Plastic wrap for babies <1000g Bag-mask ventilation Oxygen blender Laryngoscope Endotracheal tubes Suction Preparation prior to delivery Radiant warmer ◦ Switch on when enter delivery room ◦ Provides radiant heat ◦ Make sure sides are up to prevent convective heat loss Warm dry blankets ◦ Provides conductive heat ◦ Prevents evaporative heat loss Radiant warmer in DR Preparation prior to delivery Check equipments ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ Put on gloves! Resuscitation bag, air flow & oxygen Suction device (bulb and wall suction) Meconium aspirator (if meconium present) Laryngoscope and endotracheal tube Preparation prior to delivery Ensure have adequate personnel Assign roles to team members ◦ Be specific (who, what, when) ◦ Be aware of what and how team members are performing Vocalize findings/difficulties to team members Do not be afraid to CALL FOR HELP Initial Resuscitation Provide warmth ◦ Turn on radiant warmer ◦ Place baby on warm dry blanket Dry and Stimulate ◦ Dry baby with warm dry blanket ◦ Remove wet linen from baby Initial Resuscitation Airway ◦ Clear airway with bulb syringe Mouth 1st, nose 2nd ◦ Position baby to open airway Initial Resuscitation Breathing ◦ Primary apnea Can be reversed by stimulation Rub backs and flick heels Do NOT turn baby upside down! ◦ Secondary apnea Require bag and mask ventilation May require endotracheal intubation Initial Resuscitation Pick the right size of mask ◦ Fit from bridge of nose to chin ◦ Do not cover eyes Wood FE et al; Arch Dis Child – Fetal and Neonatal Ed 2008;93:F230-4 Flow-inflating bag Initial resuscitation Breathing ◦ Term infant may require peak PIP 20-30 cmH20 initial inflation pressure ◦ Provide 30-60 breaths a minute Initial resuscitation Circulation ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ Assess color, tone and heart rate Palpate brachial and umbilicus for pulse Tap out heart rate Chest compression if needed 2 different techniques Assessing Heart Rate Palpation for umbilical pulse and Auscultation by stethoscope Palpation for brachial pulse Chest compression techniques 2 finger technique 2 hand technique – thumbs side-by-side over midsternum Transport Isolette Apgar Scores Developed by Virginia Apgar in 1953 To assess effectiveness of resuscitative efforts Assess heart rate, respiration, color, tone and grimace Apgar Scores (How Ready Is This Child?) 0 Points 1 Point 2 Points Heart rate Absent <100bpm >100bpm Respiration Apnea Gasping, irregular Strong cry Irritability Absent Facial grimace Sneeze, cough, pulls away Tone Absent Arms & legs extended Active movements Color Blue-gray, pale all over Pink body, blue extremities Pink all over Assessment of tone Normal tone in term newborn Assessment of color Acrocyanosis Cyanotic newborn Algorithm of resuscitation Birth Term? Amniotic fluid clear? Breathing? Good tone? No Warm Position Clear airway Dry, stimulate, reposition Yes Routine care - Warm - Dry - Clear Airway - Assess color Algorithm of resuscitation Evaluate breathing, HR, Color & tone HR <100 or apnea 30s Positive pressure ventilation HR <60 30s Ensure effective inflation Start chest compression HR <60 Medications 30s www.exutero.wordpress.com Visit this link while in NICU rotation For Students: review articles Complete test (may work in group) For Interns: complete 4 consecutive (weekly) resident readiness tests ◦ Email completed tests to Priscilla Busch [email protected] Completion of assigned test(s) is mandatory. Failure to Complete a test will result in failure of the rotation (for students or interns). THANK YOU! QUESTIONS?
