🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
| . If a neonate has strong and equal brachial pulses and decreased femoral pulses, what is the most likely cause of this? | could be an indication of heart anomaly such as coarctation of aorta or patent ductus arteriosus.
🗑
|
||||
| What is the normal systolic blood pressure for a 1000 g neonate? | normal systolic BP would be 39-59 MM HG.
