Delivery room hospice

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, 2016
AbstractAdvances in perinatal science over the past five decades have reduced the practical ‘threshold of viability’ by approximately one week every 10 years such that survivors are expected as early as 22 weeks. Ethical standards regarding treatment of this periviable patient population remain enigmatic.ConclusionWe review limitations in the current ...

Temperature management in the delivery room

Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2008
After being in a relatively stable thermoneutral uterus for the whole of pregnancy, the newborn baby enters a cooling environment and might suffer significant heat loss and hypothermia in the first minutes of life. Alternatively, the fetus might face significant hyperthermia during and immediately after delivery if the mother is febrile.

Drugs in the delivery room

Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2019

Early Human Development, 2013
Immediately after birth the newly born infant aerates the lungs, diminishes pulmonary vascular resistance, and initiates gas exchange. However, under certain circumstances this process will not be adequately accomplished. Asphyxia is characterized by periods of hypoxia and ischemia leading frequently to hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy.

Vacuum Aspiration in the Delivery Room

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1974
Abstract. A vacuum aspirator was used to remove retained fragments of placenta, membranes and hyperplastic decidua after delivery. No post‐partum endometritis occurred in the group of 60 patients so treated, whereas five infections were found in a control group of 50 patients. The difference is almost significant.
