Management of neonatal emergencies in the delivery room

S A Ringer et al. Clin Perinatol. 1989 Mar.

Abstract

Emergencies in the delivery room are best handled by anticipation and a team approach. Basic principles of resuscitation should be applied in all cases by a team skilled in airway management and ventilatory and circulatory support. Specialized management schemes are described for rapid treatment and effective stabilization of infants with air leak syndromes, hydrops fetalis, disorders of the airway, and diaphragmatic and abdominal wall defects.
