Summary
Part 9 of the 2025 Korean Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation sets out evidence-based recommendations for supporting term and preterm newborns through transition at birth. Key themes include deferred cord clamping and intact cord milking, initiating respiratory support within the golden minute with gestation-appropriate oxygen, and airway adjuncts such as video laryngoscopy and supraglottic airways. Advanced resuscitation covers chest compressions, intravascular adrenaline, withdrawal of sodium bicarbonate, and when to discuss discontinuing resuscitation. It aims to standardise neonatal resuscitation practice in Korea.
