A newborn has a prenatally detected left lower-thoracic mass and signs of increased cardiac workload. The team is distinguishing bronchopulmonary sequestration from congenital pulmonary airway malformation and a bronchogenic cyst. Which CT angiographic finding would most strongly support sequestration?

A mechanically ventilated infant deteriorates abruptly. The endotracheal-tube depth is unchanged, a suction catheter passes without resistance, and chest movement is poor. The infant is disconnected from the ventilator, and controlled positive-pressure breaths are delivered through the endotracheal tube using an anesthesia bag with a T-piece resuscitator. Chest movement improves, and the heart rate rises. Which cause is most likely?

During the first minutes after birth, a term newborn has spontaneous respirations and a heart rate of 130/min but develops marked retractions and cyanosis when quiet. Color and air movement improve when the infant cries. A small catheter cannot be gently passed through either naris. Which intervention should the NNP initiate first?

Please do a room scan. The room scan needs to be slow. You will record yourself doing the room scan and submit the recording here. Please do not move to the next question until the recording is completely uploaded. To see yourself while recording and testing, please hit the Webcam button in the bottom right of her HonorLock window. At the end of your room scan while you are still recording, I need to see the following. Your phone is turned off and out of arms reach.  All secondary devices and monitors are turned off.  The front and back of any scratch papers. If you are allowed some type of reference sheet, then the front and back of that sheet.  Your calculator.  Failure to do the room scan and these four protocols will result in a zero on the exam. After the room scan, set your computer to the side or far enough back to where I can see your hands, your face, and your scratch paper while writing.  How to Record: Click “Insert”,  Hover over Media, Click Upload/Record, Click Record
