1 Rightwards Arrow A diaphragmatic hernia (protrusion of abdominal contents into the chest cavity through a defect in the diaphragm) is a life-threatening condition. Intubation is required immediately so the newborn’s respiratory status can be stabilized. A bag and mask will not be adequate to ventilate a newborn with this condition. The defect is not external so sterile gauze and saline are not needed. Soft arm restraints are not immediately necessary.
