Question 1
A term infant is born to a mother with a positive GBS culture who received only one dose of penicillin 2 hours before delivery. The infant is asymptomatic at 4 hours of life. According to current AAP/CDC guidance and the Kaiser Permanente Neonatal Sepsis Calculator framework, which approach is MOST appropriate?
Correct Answer:
Use risk-based assessment (sepsis calculator inputs and serial physical exams) and treat only if clinical signs develop or risk score warrants
Question 2
An infant is delivered at 38 weeks via emergency C-section for non-reassuring fetal heart tracing. At 1 minute, the infant has a heart rate of 90 bpm, weak cry, some flexion, grimace with stimulation, and acrocyanosis. What is the correct 1-minute APGAR score?
Correct Answer:
5
Question 3
A 39-week infant born to a mother with poorly controlled type 1 diabetes is large for gestational age (4.6 kg). At 1 hour of life, point-of-care glucose is 28 mg/dL. The infant is asymptomatic. According to AAP 2011 guidance for transient neonatal hypoglycemia in IDM, what is the BEST initial management?
Correct Answer:
Provide a feeding (breast or 5 mL/kg formula) and recheck glucose within 30-60 minutes; treat with IV D10W if persistently low or symptomatic
Question 4
A neonate is born to a mother who took oxycodone throughout pregnancy. At 36 hours, the infant has tremors when undisturbed, hyperactive Moro, mild tachypnea, and excessive crying. Per current AAP NAS/NOWS guidance and the Eat-Sleep-Console (ESC) approach, which is the FIRST-LINE intervention?
Correct Answer:
Begin non-pharmacologic care (rooming-in, swaddling, low stimulation, breastfeeding when appropriate) and assess function-based ESC criteria before pharmacotherapy
Question 5
Maternal preeclampsia with severe features is associated with which constellation of neonatal findings?
Correct Answer:
IUGR/SGA, thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, and increased risk of magnesium toxicity if mother received MgSO4
