About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Newborn Infants Having Asystole or Bradycardia at Birth focused on measuring Chest compression, Delivery Room, NICU,

Eligibility Criteria

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Active Comparator

Arm Label

SI+CC

3:1 CPR

Arm Description

Chest compression will be superimposed by sustained inflations during CPR: "CC+SI group" Infants randomized in the SI group requiring CC, would receive CC at a rate of 90/min during an SI with a duration of 20sec (CC+SI). After 20 sec the SI will be interrupted for 1 sec and the next SI will be started for another 20sec13. Throughout this time CC is continued until ROSC. Every 45 sec (approximately 2 SIs) the clinical team would assess for changes in heart rate. CC+SI was continued until ROSC.

CPR using 3:1 C:V ratio: "3:1 C:V group" Infants randomized into the "3:1 group" requiring CC, would received CC using the current 3:1 C:V ratio recommend in the neonatal resuscitation guidelines16. Every 45 sec the clinical team would assess heart rate. 3:1 C:V CPR was continued until ROSC.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Time needed to achieve Return of Spontaneous Circulation
We aim to reduce time needed to achieve Return of Spontaneous Circulation. This should be achieved by the experimental chest compression technique

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Guidelines on neonatal resuscitation recommend 90 chest compressions (CC) and 30 manual inflations (3:1) per minute in newborns. The study aimed to determine if CC s during sustained inflations (SI) improves recovery of asphyxiated newborns compared to coordinated 3:1 resuscitation.
