Transition
Reminder:
birth at any gestational age
Transition
involves the greatest number
of critical physiologic changes
Transition
in the smallest period of time
Transition
an individual will experience
in their entire lifetime.
Transition
Totally new experiences!
~ lungs begin gas exchange
~ fetal circulatory pathways
~ metabolic processes
~ sensory inputs
Born at Term
Early cries → lung expansion
Relaxation → awakening → activity
Breast crawl → exploring → suckling
Sleep
Born at Term
The term neonate experiences:
warmth and calm
comfort
familiar maternal heartbeat
bonding
Born Preterm
Resuscitation → maternal separation
Admission → maternal separation
Procedures → maternal separation
Born Preterm
The preterm neonate experiences:
loss of warmth
loss of comfort
loss of familiar heartbeat sound
No time for bonding!
The Care Team
Urgency to do everything
NOW
~ Resuscitation
~ The ABCs
~ THERMOREGULATION
~ Glucose/metabolic support
~ Infection prevention
Potential Failures
~ Succumbing to the chaos
~ Lack of effective teamwork
~ Miscommunication
~ Preventable Error
Performance Impacts
Immediate and long-term sequelae
Optimal outcomes
Resuscitation
Notification – coordinate - standardize
Who responds?
Available assets – who maintains?
Resuscitation
Ongoing communication
Repeating orders
Recorder – identify upon entry
Stabilization
Resist the temptation to grab and run
Remember all components of care
Update family – even briefly
Stabilization
Warmth: exception - suspected HIE

Family Support
Time of high stress
Manage our own responses to stress
Recognize stress-mediated responses
Family Support
Positive affirmation of new life
Empathetic acknowledgement
Explain everything, but be brief!
