[Management of neonatal respiratory distress in the maternity unit].
Delivery room management of neonatal respiratory disorders must be adapted to gestational age, etiology and clinical status at birth. Depending on these factors, management will require pharyngeal or tracheal aspiration, mask or mechanical ventilation, continuous positive pressure or oxygen alone. Its aim is to prevent or correct airway obstruction and inadequate oxygenation, and secondary metabolic disorders, prior to the transfer of the neonate in neonatal unit.
