Prone or Supine Effect After Caesarean Delivery on Respiratory Outcomes in Full Term Infants

Investigators will compare 500 full term babies delivered by SCD randomized into two groups, prone or supine position. Investigators will use a Panda warmer with built in Nellcor pulse oximeter. Each infant will have heart rate (HR), oxygen saturation via pulse oximetry, respiratory rate and respiratory effort documented every 1 minute for the first 5 minutes of life; beyond the initial 5minutes of life, monitoring as well as infant's management will be done as per current Weiler hospital protocols. The intervention group will be placed in prone position for first five minutes immediately after birth, and then changed to supine position. The control group will be placed supine from birth. Investigators will check for the incidence and severity of RD, supplemental oxygen need and duration, positive pressure ventilation (PPV) need and duration or other use of respiratory support (intubation). Additionally, investigators will record the number of infants requiring admission to the NICU in each group, days of ventilatory support as well as the length of hospitalization.
