I believe that auscultation with pulse oximetry is enough for heart rate assessment at the delivery room. Only in case of suspicions of heart disease or other problems, it will be monitored with ECG at an intensive care, for example, or it will be searched with more diagnostic tools. -

I agree that suctioning of clear amniotic fluid from the nose and mouth should not be used as a routine step for newborn infants at birth. -

I do not see clear evidence to support the implementation of RFM in the deliver room. -

I am in agreement with the call for further investigation before recommending the use of CPAP in term newborns with respiratory distress. -

The use of effective cardiac rhythm monitoring in the delivery room can shorten decision making during resuscitation. The investment brings invaluable benefits -
AMARILIS TEIXEIRA
I agree that monitoring heart rate provides better assesment of the newborn during ressuscitation. However, Hospital must provide the equipment, and this is impossible in some places. -

The cost of purchasing and implementing new devices may be, no doubt, an obstacle. -
Marcela Damásio Ribeiro de Castro
Careful suctioning is, in many newborns, necessary when there is execessive fluid interfering with respiration -

The use of heart rate monitoring provides accuracy to the assesment of the newborn during ressuscitation. Hospital must make an effort to provide the toll. -

I believe that tactile stimulation during cord clamping would be beneficial in newborns above 34 weeks, but below this gestational age there is a greater risk of skin lesions and intracranial hemorrhage, especially in babies below 1,500g or 28s
