Hospital Births

The majority of neonates born in the United States breathe spontaneously and do not require special assistance, but approximately 10% require some intervention, and less than 1% require extensive resuscitation measures. Although the number of infants delivered in the emergency department is unknown, out-of-hospital births have been increasing; thus, pediatric emergency physicians should be prepared for the possibility of a neonatal resuscitation in the emergency department. The acute resuscitation of the neonate should follow the Neonatal Resuscitation Program algorithm and includes assessment of heart rate, color, tone, and respiratory effort within the first minute of life. Initial treatment requires warming and gentle stimulation. Positive pressure ventilation should be initiated if the heart rate is <100 beats per minute, and chest compressions should be initiated if the heart rate is <60 beats per minute.
