About this episode
This episode discusses the anatomy and physiology of newborns and the theory behind newborn life support.
This is the first of our 2 part podcast looking at Newborn Life support. We talk about the differences in anatomy and physiology of the newborn baby as well as the changes involved in transition after birth, why newborns may struggle and go into cardiovascular collapse and the theory of NLS. In the second episode we look at a real time run through of the NLS algorithm applying the theory from the first part as well as giving handy tips to make these situations easier to manage.Check out our other episodes at www.generalbroadcast.org.ukThis Podcast is supported by GEEKY MEDICS.
