1 The ACoRN Process Baby at risk Unwell Risk factors Post-resuscitation requiring stabilization Resuscitation Ineffective breathing Heart rate < 100 bpm Central cyanosis Support Infection Risk factor for infection ACoRN alerting sign with * Clinical deterioration Respiratory Laboured respiration* Respiratory rate > 60/min* Receiving respiratory support* Thermoregulation T < 36.3 or > 37.2ºC axillary* Increased risk for temperature instability Cardiovascular Pale, mottled, or grey* Weak pulses or low BP* Cyanosis unresponsive to O 2 Heart rate > 220 bpm Problem List Respiratory Cardiovascular Neurology Surgical conditions Fluid & glucose Thermoregulation Infection Fluid & Glucose Management Blood glucose < 2.6 mmol/l At risk for hypoglycemia Not feeding or should not be fed Sequences Consider transport Neurology Abnormal tone* Jitteriness Seizures* Surgical Conditions Anterior abdominal wall defect Vomiting or inability to swallow Abdominal distension Delayed passage of meconium or imperforate anus

2 The Resuscitation Sequence

3 The Respiratory Sequence

4 The Respiratory Score: Score Respiratory rate 40 to 60/minute 60 to 80/minute > 80/minute Oxygen requirement 1 None 50% > 50% Retractions None Mild to moderate Severe Grunting None With stimulation Continuous at rest Breath sounds on auscultation Easily heard throughout Decreased Barely heard Prematurity > 34 weeks 30 to 34 weeks < 30 weeks 1 A baby receiving oxygen prior to the setup of an oxygen analyzer should be assigned a score of 1 Adapted from Downes JJ, Vidyasagar D, Boggs TR Jr, Morrow GM 3 rd. Respiratory distress syndrome of newborn infants. I. New clinical scoring system (RDS score) with acid-base and blood-gas correlations. Clin Pediatr 1970; 9(6): Total score: Mild respiratory distress Respiratory Score < 5, starting at birth and lasting < 4 hours. Moderate respiratory distress (Babies are at risk of progressing to respiratory failure.) Respiratory Score of 5 to 8 mild respiratory distress (Respiratory Score < 5), but persisting over 4 hours babies who were previously well but develop new respiratory distress. Severe respiratory distress Respiratory Score > 8 babies with severe apnea or gasping babies who are already receiving ventilation due to respiratory failure (initiated during the Resuscitation Sequence or a previous passage through the Respiratory Sequence). Note: Babies with persistent or new respiratory distress may be symptomatic due to other causes such as infection.

5 The Cardiovascular Sequence

6 Assuming a normal hemoglobin level and adequate cardiac output, how are various degrees of desaturation (hypoxemia) tolerated? Sp O2 Degree of desaturation Tolerance > 75% mild to moderate usually well tolerated 65 to 75% marked may be less well tolerated if baby otherwise sick < 65% severe poorly tolerated Clinical signs of cardiovascular instability: Stable alert, active and looking well, normal tone capillary refill < 3 seconds centrally and peripherally pulses palpable and full heart sounds normal no edema or signs of third space fluid clear lungs and normal-sized heart on chest radiograph Unstable listless or lethargic and/or distressed, decreased tone capillary refill > 3 seconds pulses weak gallop edema or signs of other third space fluid congested lungs or pleural effusions, and/or enlarged heart on chest radiograph

7 The Neurology Sequence

8 The Surgical Conditions Sequence

9 The Fluid & Glucose Management Sequence

10 Maintenance fluid Postnatal age Baseline oral intake (if not breastfed on cue) Baseline intravenous intake (if not feeding) Day 1 Up to 12 ml/kg every 3 hours Day 2 Up to 12 ml/kg every 3 hours Day 3 Up to 15 ml/kg every 3 hours Day 4 Up to 18 to 20 ml/kg every 3 hours D10%W at 3 ml/kg/hour D10%W at 4 ml/kg/hour D10%W with 20 mmol/l of NaCl at 5 ml/kg/hour D10%W with 20 mmol/l of NaCl at 6 ml/kg/hour (other electrolytes may be needed) Glucose monitoring guidelines to ensure normal values are achieved after treatment is initiated: Blood glucose level < 2.6 mmol/l (< 47 mg/dl) 2.6 to 3.3 mmol/l (47 to 60 mg/dl) > 3.3 mmol/l (> 60 mg/dl) Monitoring guideline One hour after enteral feed and prior to the next feed, or 30 minutes after an IV bolus or starting an IV infusion. Prior to feeds; or every 4 to 6 hours if on an IV infusion Every 2 nd to 3 rd feed or every 6 to 8 hours if on an IV infusion. Transition to enteral feeds: discontinue monitoring after two consecutive glucose levels > 3.3 mmol/l (> 60 mg/dl). Suggested steps for increasing glucose intake if blood glucose checks remain < 2.6 mmol/l (< 47 mg/dl) Steps Enterally fed IV dextrose infusion Baseline Step 1 Breastfeed on cue, or Feed every 2 to 3 hours Feed measured volume 8 ml/kg every 2 hours or 12 ml/kg every 3 hours, or Start IV dextrose infusion at baseline D10%W, 3 ml/kg/hour (= 5 mg/kg/minute of glucose) D10%W, 4 ml/kg/hour (= 6.7 mg/kg/minute of glucose) Step 2 Go to IV dextrose infusion step 1, and proceed from there D12.5%W, 4 to 5 ml/kg/hour (= 8.3 to 10.4 mg/kg/minute of glucose) Obtain consultation and investigations Consider central access Consider glucagon or other pharmacological intervention
