35. A baby is delivered at 29 weeks gestation. At 5 minutes after birth, the baby is breathing spontaneously while receiving CPAP (at a
pressure of 5 cm H20) and 30% oxygen. A pulse oximeter sensor on the baby's right hand is reading 95% and oxygen saturation is
increasing. What is the most appropriate next step?
Decrease the oxygen concentration.
Begin PPV.
Increase the oxygen concentration.
O Continue CPAP and 30% oxygen.

Respuesta :

Decreasing the oxygen concentration

Option A is correct

What is the most appropriate next step?

A) Decreasing the oxygen concentration is the appropriate step for stabilizing the baby.

B. Begin PPV: Positive pressure ventilation (PPV) is administered  If the baby has a heart rate of < 100 bpm and has apnea

C) Increasing the oxygen concentration is irrelevant and as the goal here is to stabilize the baby's breathing.

D. Also with "continue CPAP and 30% oxygen" we experience an increase in oxygen saturation.
