Neonatal summary
Following a preterm delivery, the neonatal APGAR scores documented at
1,5 and 10 minutes were 2, 3, and 7 respectively. However, an hour after
delivery, the newborn encountered severe asphyxia and was transferred to
neonatal intensive care unit for resuscitation and intubation. The baby
received one dose of surfactant and was extubated after 16 hours to
nasal continuous positive airway pressure. The newborn was tested twice
(14 days interval) for COVID-19 IgG and IgM and was found negative in
both the occasions. The baby was discharged on day 14.
