Abstract

Infants that appear with respiratory distress or cardiac arrest require immediate attention, and neonatal resuscitation is a crucial skill that can significantly impact the outcome. Here, we discuss a case of a two-month-old baby who needed ER resuscitation. The patient needed immediate assistance due to respiratory distress and cyanosis. This case study emphasizes how crucial it is to follow the Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) algorithm because it allows the patient to have a successful outcome. Regarding the decision on whether to use NRP or Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) guidelines for the two-month-old infant, it was ultimately decided to use the NRP guidelines. This decision was based on the preference of the institution. This case was successfully handled, highlighting the importance of complete training and adherence to the NRP recommendations for healthcare workers involved in neonatal care.
