Recent clinical trials have shown that infants resuscitated with 21 percent oxygen compared with 100 percent oxygen had significantly lower mortality (at one week and one month) and were able to establish regular respiration in a shorter time; the rates of encephalopathy and cerebral palsy were similar in the two groups. 45 – 49 The 2010 NRP guidelines recommend starting resuscitation of term infants with 21 percent oxygen or blended oxygen and increasing the concentration of oxygen (using an air/oxygen blender) if oxygen saturation (measured using a pulse oximeter) is lower than recommended targets ( Figure 1 ). 5 Oxygen concentration should be increased to 100 percent if the heart rate is less than 60 bpm despite effective ventilation, and when chest compressions are necessary. 5 – 7 If the infant's heart rate is less than 60 bpm, the delivery of PPV is optimized and applied for 30 seconds.
