Ineffective airway clearance related to nasal and oral secretions from delivery
Ineffective thermoregulation related to environment and immature ability for adaptation
Risk for injury related to immature defenses of the newborn

B. Do not hyperextend neck at anytime (may close glottis)
Place infant in “sniff” position Neck slightly
extended as if sniffing air
Opens airway

3. Immediately dry infant under a radiant warmer or skin to skin contact with the motherKeep neonates
head covered

Infant temperature should be above 36.4°C.
Infants lose heat through evaporation, radiation, conduction and convection.

4. Obtain APGAR Scoring at 1 min and 5 min
![Page 12: Nursing Assessment Maternal history/labor data indicating potential problems with newborn Apgar Scores Findings of brief physical examination.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062721/56649f1c5503460f94c33148/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Apgar test is a scoring system designed by Dr. Virginia Apgar,
an anesthesiologist, a systematic and measurable
method to access the newborn in the crucial minutes after birth.
![Page 13: Nursing Assessment Maternal history/labor data indicating potential problems with newborn Apgar Scores Findings of brief physical examination.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062721/56649f1c5503460f94c33148/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Purposes:evaluate the conditions of the baby
at birth, determine the need for
resuscitation, evaluate the effectiveness of
resuscitative efforts, identify neonates at risk for
morbidity and mortality.

If there are problems with the infant: an additional score may be repeated at a 10-minute interval.
For a Cesarean section: the baby is additionally assessed at 15 minutes after delivery.
![Page 17: Nursing Assessment Maternal history/labor data indicating potential problems with newborn Apgar Scores Findings of brief physical examination.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062721/56649f1c5503460f94c33148/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Scoring 7-9 = free from immediate distress; normal 4-6 = moderately depressed; may require
additional resuscitative measures 0-3 = severely depressed; necessitates
immediate medical attention
Note: APGAR score is strictly used to determine the newborn’s
immediate condition at birth and does not necessarily reflect the future health of
your baby.
![Page 18: Nursing Assessment Maternal history/labor data indicating potential problems with newborn Apgar Scores Findings of brief physical examination.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062721/56649f1c5503460f94c33148/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Scores done at 1 minute to identify who needs immediate intervention.
Scores taken again at 5 minutes to assess recovery from depression or a subsequent turn for the worse.
Resuscitation takes precedence over determining score.

11.Administer a prophylactic vitamin K Prevent neonatal hemorrhage during first few
days of life before infant is able to produce vit. K Recommended route of administration:
intramuscular Dose:

Measure weight, length, and head circumference helps determine if a baby's weight and
measurements are normal for the number of weeks of pregnancy.
Small or underweight babies, as well as very large babies, may need special attention and care.

Babies often have two, on the wrist and ankle.
