I have known of this kind of elective intubation while still inutero- and
attached to the placenta- only in a case where there was a known throat
abnormality. The paeds wanted to have an airway before the connection to the
placenta was lost... can't remember what the abnormality was, maybe a
tumour? Anyhow, they did it, huge circus in theatre, baby t/f to NNICetc.
Certainly not routine.

Subject: [ozmidwifery] The weekend australian
There was an article in the careers section of last weekends Australian,
that was an interesting read on c/section. The photo that went with it has
me perplexed though.It appears to show a bub being born by caesarean, still
in the abdomen but with an ET tube and sats monitor. It is lovely and pink
and has a cord that doesn't appear to have been clamped. anyone have any
ideas?
