effective action to take in the resuscitation of this baby?
Provide positive-pressure ventilation.
Perform chest compressions.
Provide additional vigorous stimulation
Provide supplemental oxygen. - CORRECT ANSWER Provide positive-pressure ventilation.
During the resuscitation of a newborn, you auscultate the apical pulse and count 10 beats over
a 6 second period. What heart rate do you report to your team?

30 beats per minute - CORRECT ANSWER 100 beats per minute
A newborn of 34 weeks' gestation is not breathing (apneic) at birth, does not respond to initial
steps and requires positive-pressure ventilation. What concentration of oxygen should be used
as you begin positive-pressure ventilation?
30 - 50% oxygen
100% oxygen
50 - 70% oxygen
21 - 30% oxygen - CORRECT ANSWER 21 - 30% oxygen

minute. What is the most important action you can take?
Provide chest compressions
Apply CPAP
Provide positive-pressure ventilation
Provide free-flow oxygen - CORRECT ANSWER Provide positive-pressure ventilation

A baby is born at 34 weeks' gestation. After the initial steps of resuscitation, the baby is not
breathing (apneic). What are the next steps?
Provide additional tactile stimulation, evaluate color and tone, evaluate heart rate.
Administer free-flow oxygen, place a pulse oximeter sensor on the right hand or wrist, evaluate
heart rate.
Administer CPAP, place a pulse oximeter sensor on the right hand or wrist, evaluate color and
tone.
Initiative positive-pressure ventilation, place a pulse oximeter sensor on the right hand or wrist,
evaluate heart rate. - CORRECT ANSWER Initiative positive-pressure ventilation, place a pulse
oximeter sensor on the right hand or wrist, evaluate heart rate.
