How about a video on patience in the DR. Different providers have different thresholds when they think interventions should be initiated. Apnea vs periodic breathing or PPV or not to PPV. Definitely bulb suctioning is over utilized in the DR. I still hear of facilities doing CPT on "WET" sounding lungs. Fun and engaging videos. Keep up the good work.
Great ideas. I do cover suctioning on episode 2 here: ruclips.net/video/mGEosdxVBtU/видео.html And I try to demonstrate patients in our small baby resuscitation video here: ruclips.net/video/Z8HS0YCtl-g/видео.html Thank you for watching and your comments
A very common problem I face in our unit is the deep suctioning( catheter) done before starting PPV because RTs are not comfortable starting PPV before suction!! Though NRP says suction if needed in the initial steps ..then if PPV isn't effective MRSOPA's 3ed step is suction..any tips to change that practice 🙄
I think that is all too common. Not sure if it will help, but in episode 2, ruclips.net/video/mGEosdxVBtU/видео.html I describe when to suction in general (not just specific to meconium). The wipe trial showed that just a quick wipe of the mouth with a cloth was better than bulb suctioning. Instead of trying to stop a practice you don't like - bulb suction before PPV - maybe try to get them to replace that with another - wipe the mouth before PPV.
