NRP8th Edition Questions and Answers
Already Passed
Question: What does NRP stand for in the context of neonatal care?


Answer: ✔✔ NRP stands for Neonatal Resuscitation Program.




Question: What is the primary goal of the Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP)?


Answer: ✔✔ The primary goal of NRP is to teach healthcare providers how to resuscitate and

stabilize newborns who require medical assistance immediately after birth.




Question: What is the recommended initial intervention for a newborn who is not breathing or

has a low heart rate?


Answer: ✔✔ Positive pressure ventilation (PPV) is the recommended initial intervention for a

newborn who is not breathing or has a heart rate less than 100 beats per minute.




Question: How is the heart rate of a newborn typically assessed during resuscitation?


Answer: ✔✔ The heart rate is assessed using a stethoscope or an ECG monitor, with a focus on

evaluating the rate and rhythm.




1

,Question: What is the ideal oxygen concentration used during positive pressure ventilation in

newborns according to NRP guidelines?


Answer: ✔✔ For term newborns, it is recommended to start with room air (21% oxygen), while

preterm newborns may start with a lower concentration of oxygen, such as 21-30%.




Question: When should chest compressions be initiated during neonatal resuscitation?


Answer: ✔✔ Chest compressions should be initiated if the newborn’s heart rate remains below

60 beats per minute despite adequate ventilation with 100% oxygen for at least 30 seconds.




Question: What is the recommended compression-to-ventilation ratio in neonatal resuscitation?


Answer: ✔✔ The recommended compression-to-ventilation ratio is 3:1, meaning three

compressions for every ventilation breath.




Question: What is the preferred method for delivering chest compressions in a newborn?


Answer: ✔✔ The preferred method is the two-thumb encircling technique, where the thumbs

provide compressions while the fingers support the infant’s back.




Question: What is the recommended target pre-ductal oxygen saturation for a newborn 5 minutes

after birth?


2

, Answer: ✔✔ The target pre-ductal oxygen saturation is 80-85% at 5 minutes after birth.




Question: What medication may be considered if a newborn has a heart rate below 60 bpm

despite effective ventilation and chest compressions?


Answer: ✔✔ Epinephrine is the medication that may be administered if the heart rate remains

below 60 bpm despite effective resuscitation efforts.




Question: How should epinephrine be administered during neonatal resuscitation?


Answer: ✔✔ Epinephrine can be administered intravenously (IV) or via an endotracheal tube,

with IV being the preferred route.




Question: When should an orogastric or nasogastric tube be inserted during neonatal

resuscitation?


Answer: ✔✔ An orogastric or nasogastric tube should be inserted if there is significant

abdominal distention that may interfere with ventilation.




Question: What are the key components of effective team communication during neonatal

resuscitation?
