The New NRP Algorithm NRP 2006 – Western Canada Launch Vancouver, BC
2
Objectives Show the new 2006 Resuscitation algorithm
Discuss the NRP 2006 Initial Steps What has changed since NRP 2000 How specific Canadian Expert Committee recommendations affect the algorithm
3
Objectives The Initial Steps Decide if resuscitation is needed
Provide initial steps of resuscitation Decide if / when oxygen should be given Exception to “dry the baby” Resuscitate a newborn when meconium is present

The Canadian Expert Committee
National guidelines to neonatal resuscitation across several continents are based on the consensus statements of the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR). Each country is expected to develop guidelines that reflect their own context. Why is there a difference between recommendations in the text and Canadian recommendations? National guidelines to neonatal resuscitation across several continents are based on the consensus statements of the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR). Each country is expected to develop guidelines that reflect their own context. Similarities between the American healthcare system and our own have fostered a strong and fruitful relationship with the American NRP Committee, permitting us to have input into development of the AAP NRP guidelines and textbook and to base our neonatal resuscitation education on the Neonatal Resuscitation Program. However, on occasion, we have felt this relationship constrains the development of guidelines specific to Canadian institutions in the absence of a Canadian textbook. The National NRP Committee for Canada has, therefore, felt that we should identify and promote approaches to resuscitation which have been interpreted by Canadian clinicians, scientists and educators to reflect our own unique healthcare system and culture, just as the AAP NRP guidelines are on occasion constrained by the American healthcare system. This philosophy is key to the growth of our neonatal community, but its consequence will be, on occasion, a disparity between practices north and south of the border.

Normal transition Slide courtesy of ACoRN 2006
Normal increase in oxygenation after birth in healthy term babies Study done in Calgary …. Average saturation doesn’t get > 80 until 5 minutes of age, sats 90 around 8 minutes of age --- shows process takes time in the normal, healthy term baby C/S babies took longer. Why the difference? Could be babies born by C/S may take longer to transition to extrauterine life. If we start to measure sats in the delivery room more regularly, we will see this.

Oxygen administration
Only central cyanosis requires intervention. Acrocyanosis does not indicate hypoxemia. “If the baby is breathing but appears blue, administration of supplemental oxygen is indicated” at 90 seconds… “Supplemental oxygen also may be needed when respirations are being assisted” at 90 seconds… “There is evidence that resuscitation with air is as effective as with 100% oxygen …”

The Initial Steps Or wet in bag? … at 90 seconds
52
Preterm < 32 weeks Use blended oxygen and air, and a pulse oximeter
Begin PPV with FiO2 between 0.21 and Studies are lacking to be more precise. Adjust FiO2 to achieve SpO2 gradually increasing towards 90%. Decrease the FiO2 as SpO2 rises over 95% If the heart rate does not respond by increasing rapidly to > 100 bpm, correct any ventilation problem and use FiO

Should oxygen be administered to babies receiving chest compressions?

NRP 2006 When to use oxygen: Cyanotic at 90 seconds (supplemental)
Receiving chest compressions (100%)
58
Epinephrine ! “If the heart rate remains below 60 bpm despite administration of ventilation and chest compressions your first action is to ensure that ventilation and chest compressions are being given optimally and that you are using 100% oxygen”
59
Epinephrine Route UVC ETT Intraosseous low position
Slow absorption → higher dose? Poor evidence, expert opinion Intraosseous Outpatient setting; limited data → not taught
60
Epinephrine - Administration
CPS: “First dose via ETT while preparing for insertion of UVC” 3 mL syringe 1 mL/kg of 1:10,000 epinephrine “When given via UVC …” 1 mL syringe 0.1 mL/kg of 1:10,000 epinephrine Follow with 5 mL of 0.9& saline flush
61
Epinephrine - Administration
Shows recommendation in CPS NRP addendum, 2006
62
Epinephrine - Administration
Can repeat after 3-5 minutes
63
Shock / hypovolemia ! “If the baby appears in shock and is not responding to resuscitation administration of a volume expander may be indicated”
64
