It can cause higher vascular resistance and blood pressure. Those can stimulate bar receptors in blood vessels and glomus caroticus and cause bradicardia of the neonate. The newborn can be irritable with oscillating tonus. He/she can have jaundice and cyanotic crises (as a result of plethora) or can develop respiratory distress. Oxygen must be introduced.
