Résumé
The majority of newborns transition to extra uterine life without support. However, respiratory emergencies in the delivery room are a common occurrence. Whilst some situations are predictable e.g. the anticipated birth of an extremely preterm infant, others are less so. In this chapter we address the most frequent scenarios that result in delivery room respiratory emergencies and discuss the latest recommendations for their management. We outline the need for a trained resuscitation team and appropriate equipment to provide respiratory support at every birth. We address the basic care that all infants should receive, the detailed application of non-invasive ventilation and the use of advanced airway techniques. We discuss the unique challenges presented by extreme prematurity including umbilical cord management, use of supplemental oxygen, initial modes of respiratory support and surfactant delivery. We will explore optimal techniques in the management of infants with lung hypoplasia, pneumothorax and meconium aspiration.
