Physiological responses of the newborn infant to resuscitation.
Lung ventilation, endotracheal, and intraoesophageal pressures were measured during standard resuscitation of 20 asphyxiated babies born by caesarean section. The most common response to resuscitation was the production of a large positive intraoesphageal pressure. An opening pressure greater than 2.0 kPa was required to expand the lungs of most of these babies. The need for resuscitation was a...

متن کاملNewborn physiological responses to noise in the neonatal unit.
INTRODUCTION The incorporation of technologies in the care of infants has contributed to increased survival; however, this has turned neonatal unit into a noisy environment. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the physiological and functional effects resulting from the exposure to noise on low-weight newborns in incubators in a neonatal unit. METHODS Prospective, observational, quantitative, exploratory,...
متن کاملA Model of the Respiratory System in the Newborn Infant
A dynamic mathematical model is presented which successfully simulates the respiratory control system of the newborn infant in different physiological conditions. The primary objective in constructing this model has been to provide a simulation aid in the investigation of maturation of the respiratory system, and the respiratory disorders during the newborn period, without the need for invasive...
متن کاملResuscitation of the newborn.
Effective resuscitation of the newborn requires knowledge of the cause of depression. Four major causes are trauma, asphyxia, medication, and malformation. More than one of these may contribute to depression in a single infant. The first principles of resuscitation are to avoid cooling the infant and to establish an airway. Infants with an Apgar score of 3 to 4 at one minute usually need bag-an...
