Setting Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)
Scenario Bailey G. Perry is admitted to your NICU. The medical team thinks the respiratory decompensation is from HSV infection that needs to be immediately addressed to prevent further clinical decompensation. The attending asks you to work with the intern to get medications ordered regarding acute care of Bailey G. Perry as well as any other pertinent pharmacologic management needed based on her past medical history and labs.
Admission note taken on 10/19/25
CC “Congenital infection”
HPI Bailey G. Perry is an estimated 37w3d neonate born to Leslie Parks who presented to the ED in labor. Spontaneous rupture of membranes occurred in the ED and mother was transferred to the labor and delivery unit where she delivered precipitously. The neonate was admitted to the level I nursery for observation and withdrawal monitoring. The neonate voided shortly after delivery and a urine drug screen was sent secondary to absence of prenatal care.

At 4 hours after birth the neonate developed grunting with nasal flaring and was placed on noninvasive positive pressure with an FiO2 requirement of 21%. The patient was also noted to have clear vesicles on the left leg at this time. Given the change in clinical status a chest x-ray, blood gas, complete blood cell count, blood cultures, viral cultures, and other labs were obtained. The patient was also made NPO. While attempting to place a peripheral intravenous line, the neonate had a brief episode of desaturation with a dusky appearance requiring 100% FiO2 to recover. She was subsequently weaned to 30% oxygen over the next 30 minutes. The neonatal team was called for transport of the patient to the level IV NICU for further management.

Upon arrival to the NICU, the medical team places an umbilical venous catheter (UVC) for access and performs a lumbar puncture. At the time her weight was 3 kg (21st percentile), height was 48 cm (30th percentile), and head circumference was 34 cm (33rd percentile).
PMH Narrative
  • The neonate had spontaneous cry upon delivery, was warmed, dried, stimulated, and received suctioning. No additional resuscitation needed.
  • The patient was transferred on room air to the level I nursery for observation.
