    • weight 3000g
  11. Infant Apnea / Sids assesment
    • History
    • any family history of sids
    • and periods of cyanotic apnea spells
    • gestational age - was the baby a premature
  12. Treatment of Sids / apnea
    • Oxygen - 30 -50%
    • teach parents cpr
    • use of home apnea monitor
  13. Meconium Aspiration
    more common in post term greater then 42 weaks

    Low apgar ascore
  14. General appearace of meconium aspiration
    • stained with meconium
    • granting
    • retractions
    • cyanosis
    • nasal flaring
    • asphyxia
  15. V/S of Meconium
    • tachycardia
    • respirations gasping with tachypnea
  16. Blood gas of meconium
    hypoxemia with mix acidosis
  17. chest x-ray of meconium
    patchy densities with wide spread atelectasis
  18. Treatment of meconium aspiration
    • suction mouth then nose
    • intubate and resuscitate
    • mechanical ventilation
    • agressisve cpt
  19. Congential heart defects History
    • my be premature
    • normal chest x-ray with respiratory disstress
    • cyanosis that is not corrected / improved with oxygen
    • Hypertension in upper extermities
    • hypotension lower extermities
  20. Tetralogy fallout
    • overriding aorta
    • pulmonary stenosis
    • ventricular septal defects
    • right ventricular hypertension
    • x-ray will of heart will look like boot
  21. Infant disstress syndrome (IDS)
    a reduction in lung volume due to lack of surfactant
  22. assesment of IDS
    • Gastational age less then 38 weeks
    • low apgar score
  23. onset of IDS symptoms
    at birth or a few hours after
  24. appearance of IDS
    • nasal flaring
    • granting
    • retarctions
    • cyanosis
    • increase rr
  25. x-ray of irds
    • reticulogranular infiltrates
    • honeycomb appearance
    • ground glass appearance
  26. ABG of IDS
    hypoxemia that does not improve with increase of fio2
  27. treatment of IDS
    • maintain PaO2 greater then 60 torr
    • use oxyhood then c-pap
    • surfactant therapy
  28. mechanical ventilation of IRDS
    • use of peep
    • simv
    • Reverse I:E
  29. adminstration of surfactant
    • use 2-5 mg ml/kg
    • divided into 2 - 4 dose.
    • manually ventilate after each does
    • rotate patient from side to side
  30. Bronchopulmonary dysphasia
    a chronic lung diease that developes as in newborns as a consequence of irds
  31. History of bronchopulmonary dysphasia
    premature that requires mechanical ventilation with high levels of fio2
  32. treatment of bronchopulmonary dysphasia
    • keep pao2 between 55 - 70 torr
    • paco2 45 - 60 torr
    • ph 7.25 7.40
    • use the lowest fio2
    • wean by decreasing rate
    • extubate when rr is between 5-15bpm
    • evoid ET - Cpap (this can increase raw)
