Chest Compression Quality in a Newborn Manikin: A Randomized Crossover Trial
(IEEE Press, 2018-09-04)
The objective of this paper was to examine the changes in applied force and rate of chest compression (CC) during 5 min of CC with a target CC rate of 90/min (CC90) or 120/min (CC120) with and without metronome guidance ...
Evidence on Adrenaline Use in Resuscitation and Its Relevance to Newborn Infants: A Non-Systematic Review
(Karger, 2016-12)
AIM: Guidelines for newborn resuscitation state that if the heart rate does not increase despite adequate ventilation and chest compressions, adrenaline administration should be considered. However, controversy exists ...
Pulseless electrical activity: A misdiagnosed entity during asphyxia in newborn infants?
(BMJ Publishing Group, 2018-06-12)
Background The 2015 neonatal resuscitation guidelines added ECG as a recommended method of assessment of an infant’s heart rate (HR) when determining the need for resuscitation at birth. However, a recent case report raised ...
Optimal conventional mechanical ventilation in full-term newborns: A systematic review
(Lippincott, Williams, Wilkins, 2018-12)
Background: Most studies examining the best mechanical ventilation strategies in newborn infants have been performed in premature infants with respiratory distress syndrome.
Purpose: To identify and synthesize the ...
Right and left ventricular function in hospitalized children with respiratory syncytial virus infection
(Dove Medical Press, 2017-11-07)
Background: Extrapulmonary manifestations including cardiac dysfunction have been demonstrated in children with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection requiring intensive care. The aim of this study was to examine ...
Optimal chest compression rate and compression to ventilation ratio in delivery room resuscitation: Evidence from newborn piglets and neonatal manikins
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2017-01-23)
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) duration until return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) influences survival and neurologic outcomes after delivery room (DR) CPR. High quality chest compressions (CC) improve cerebral ...
