Scenario Information
Case Summary:
Baby born at 38 weeks +4 gestation. His mother, who is now G-2, P-1, had previously attempted a home delivery and labored for over 26 hours before she reconsidered and went to the hospital. She experienced SROM approximately 20 hours prior and developed chorioamnionitis; the fever and uterine pain lead her to seek medical treatment. While in the labour suite, it was determined that she was GBS+ and then quickly received a dose of IV antibiotics, just 30 minutes before delivery. Babe appears to be having difficulty breathing right after being placed on skin-to-skin bonding; now brought to the warmer. NICU was called to second in.

Notes on Simulation/Educational Real Time Peer Review:
Used with UNI & SuperTory. Pre-built scenario runs well - will upload when able. Scenario starts in L&D and moves to NICU once babe stabilized. Great for identifying LSTs in movement from dept to dept
