    MCQ for neonatolgy

    Dr Varsha Atul Shah


    1.During delivery of an infant who has an
    estimated gestational age of 42 weeks, you
    note that the amniotic fluid looks like pea soup
    and contains thick particles of meconium.
    Of the following, the MOST important initial step
    in resuscitation of the infant is to

    A. dry the baby and stimulate if baby is flat


    B. determine the Apgar score
    C. initiate tracheal intubation
    D. provide positive pressure ventilation
    E. suction the hypopharynx
    2. A newborn is delivered by emergency cesarean
    section because of fetal distress following acute
    abruption of the placenta. The infant is
    resuscitated and transferred to the nursery. On
    physical examination, she appears pale, and her
    extremities are cold to touch. The capillary refill is
    8 seconds. Results of an arterial blood gas
    analysis show a Po2 of 48 mm Hg. Of the
    following, the MOST likely additional finding is
    A. decreased bicarbonate concentration
    B. hypercalcemia
    C. hyperglycemia
    D. hyponatremia
    E. normal anion gap
    3. An infant is born at 27 weeks' gestation
    following a pregnancy complicated by preterm
    labor that progressed despite administration of a
    tocolytic agent.
    Of the following, the most appropriate INITIAL
    management is to

    A. measure transcutaneous oxygen saturation


    B. perform endotracheal intubation
    C. place an umbilical arterial catheter
    D. place the infant in an open bed warmer
    E. provide nasal continuous positive airway
    pressure
    4. Of the following, the condition that is MOST
    likely to present with seizures during the
    first 24 hours of life is
    A .fetal alcohol syndrome
    B .herpes simplex infection
    C. hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy
    D. organic acidemia
    E. urea cycle defect
    5. A term infant is placed under a radiant warmer,
    the skin is dried, and the oropharynx and nose are
    suctioned. After tactile stimulation, there is minimal
    respiratory effort, dusky color, and a heart rate of 86
    beats/min. Bag/mask ventilation is performed for 30
    seconds with 100% oxygen at a rate of 40 to 60
    breaths/min. The heart rate increases to 100
    beats/min.
    Of the following, the NEXT best step is to:
    A. administer sodium bicarbonate
    B. continue bag/mask ventilation at a rate of 20 to
    40 breaths/min
    C .continue ventilation and begin chest
    compressions
    D. observes for spontaneous respiration and
    discontinues ventilation
    E. perform endotracheal intubation
    6. At birth, a newborn infant is noted to have the
    following findings: heart rate 70/min,
    respiratory effort poor and irregular, limp, no
    reflex irritability, blue all over the body. The
    Apgar score of the baby at this point is

    A.1
    B.2
    C.4
    D.5
