A newborn delivered at 38 weeks gestation is brought to the nursery. The nurse notes the infant has a heart rate of 110 bpm, irregular respirations at 45/min with mild retractions, pink body with blue hands and feet, some flexion of extremities, and grimaces when stimulated. What is the most appropriate initial nursing intervention?
1Provide gentle tactile stimulation and position the newborn to facilitate breathing✓ 정답
2Immediately begin bag-mask ventilation with 100% oxygen
3Administer naloxone (Narcan) to reverse potential opioid effects
4Place the newborn under a radiant warmer and monitor vital signs
해설
The newborn's findings (HR 110 bpm, irregular respirations, acrocyanosis, flexion, grimace) indicate normal transition with Apgar ~7-8, requiring gentle tactile stimulation and positioning to support breathing. Other interventions (bag-mask ventilation, naloxone, radiant warmer) are not indicated as the infant is stable.
