Dr. Colleen Brennan, academic neonatologist at Washington University and director of neonatal outreach, walks us through the first few hours of a baby’s life when things don’t go as planned! She covers critical topics like recognizing respiratory distress and apnea in a neonate, practical tips for corrective steps in newborn resuscitation, how low is too low in neonatal blood glucose, and when to think about etiologies outside of normal transitional physiology!
