Overview of the resource
This Clinical Learning Resource Package Response Booklet is to be used in
conjunction with the Neonatal respiratory distress including administration of CPAP
CLR and response booklet. Please review the contents of the learning resource
package and answer in the appropriate spaces within this response booklet.
How to use this response booklet
To use this response booklet:
 Read through the reading material, including recommended readings and related
policies and guidelines
 Complete written activities within this booklet and discuss your answers with a
resource person
 Complete the clinical skills assessment tool (Appendix 4) on completion of this
package
Assessment
Assessment of this resource package response booklet will be demonstrated through
successful completion of specific activities utilising the resources provided or identified
throughout the CLR, or others available from your Hospital Health Service /Facility.
Resource staff, Clinical Facilitators or Nurse Educators should review and discuss the
responses of all activities listed in the CLR to determine knowledge and awareness of
the specific issues addressed. To gain competency for administering CPAP to
neonates, the following must be completed:
 Completion and assessment of this CLR response booklet
 Successful completion of the Clinical Skills Assessment Tool (CSAT) will be upon
direct supervision by a Resource Person, Clinical Facilitator or Nurse Educator
competent in the care of the baby on CPAP in accordance with the Clinical
Assessment Guidelines within the package.
Completion of this resource package and associated competency is optional for
nurses/midwives with previous experience in the care of the baby requiring CPAP, i.e.
previous completion of an accredited education program in neonatal nursing, including
recent experience in the care of the baby requiring CPAP.

Cathy has just started work in the nursery and you are assigned to
preceptor her on her first day caring for a baby on CPAP. Below
please describe how you would teach Cathy the following:

Cathy comments that she is unfamiliar with using short bi-nasal
prongs and bubble CPAP. After a demonstration applying these
devices and caring for a baby on these types of CPAP she asks you
about the advantages and disadvantages of each system. Using an
evidence based approach document your response below

Activity 4
Read through the following clinical scenario and answer the
subsequent questions.
Clinical Scenario
Lucy was born in a tertiary referral centre, at 28 weeks gestation via caesarean section,
after her mother’s pregnancy induced hypertension dramatically worsened. Today, five
weeks after birth, she has been transferred to the Level 2 nursery for ongoing care.
The Nurse/Midwife taking over the care of Lucy noted that on the discharge summary
from the tertiary centre, Lucy was ventilated for 7 days and then extubated to nasal
CPAP via an infant ventilator.

a)
Using the above scenario, please consider and respond to the following
questions.
Why would you elect to not use ETT CPAP?
Neonatal Respiratory Distress including CPAP: Response Booklet for CLR V2

b)
Using the above scenario, please consider and respond to the following
questions.
Is nasal CPAP immediately after extubation in preterm infants necessary?
(Refer to the Cochrane Library for the most recent systematic review). Write
your conclusions here:

Reading further into Lucy’s discharge summary, it is noted that a couple of days after
having her CPAP ceased, she was recommenced on CPAP for apnoea of prematurity.

c)
Using the above scenario, please consider and respond to the following
questions.
Referring back to Reading 2 and 4, identify how CPAP may reduce apnoea in
infants with this condition.

Unit 3: Humidification of CPAP
Activity 5
Inadequately humidified ventilatory gases delivered to intubated
babies can cause significant respiratory morbidity. Explain seven
(7) respiratory changes that occur as a result of poor humidification.
Seven respiratory changes due to poor humidification
Neonatal Respiratory Distress including CPAP: Response Booklet for CLR V2
Page 15 of 33
Activity 6
Consider the management of humidification for ventilation of gases in
your nursery. Review your nursery’s policy and practices and examine
the configuration of the circuit used in the nursery. Using your
readings and appendix 3, answer the following questions.
Where is/are the heater
wire/s located?
Where is the gas
temperature probe
positioned? Why?
Which of the inspiratory and
expiratory limbs is positioned
uppermost at the manifold?
Why?
Set temperature for water
chamber/inspiratory gas? Is
there a deliberate
differential? Why?
Is rain-out ever a problem
with the configuration used
in the nursery? Identify the
circumstances (i.e.
environmental temperatures)
when this occurs and how
this could be corrected.

Unit 4: Complications of CPAP
Activity 7
Read through the following clinical scenario and answer the
subsequent questions.
Clinical Scenario
Daisy was born in a regional hospital at 41 weeks gestational age via caesarean
section. Daisy’s mother had reported decreased fetal movements and upon
examination was found to have poor CTG readings leading to an emergency
caesarean section. Daisy was born in poor condition with Apgar’s of 3 at 1 minute and
7 at 5 minutes. She required bag and mask intermittent positive pressure ventilation
(IPPV) and by ten minutes of age was pink and active.
Though Daisy was breathing, she had moderate chest recession, nasal flaring, and
occasional grunting. Daisy was commenced on CPAP with additional oxygen and was
taken to the Special Care Nursery. Shortly after, she was commenced on IV antibiotics
for her respiratory distress. One hour later, Daisy’s pulse oximetre was alarming and
suggested sudden desaturation into the 70’s. Upon closer inspection, the nurse
observed that though Daisy was still breathing, she had cyanotic lips and a general
dusky appearance. The nurse suctioned Daisy’s mouth and increased her oxygen.
Daisy’s oxygen saturations did not improve; the nurse pressed the emergency alarm
and the paediatrician attended. A chest x-ray was ordered while the doctor examined
Daisy. Auscultation showed decreased breath sounds on the right side, and a slight
chest asymmetry. Chest x-ray confirmed the diagnosis of tension pneumothorax and
insertion of an intercostal catheter (ICC) was performed using a sterile technique.
Daisy was later weaned back to 21%FiO2 and two days later had the ICC removed.
Reflecting on the above scenario, please answer the following questions.
