 (D). In such situation when you have time (mother still in stage I labor), the best response is to call your direct senior resident or consultant then explain the result of antenatal scan trying to put the parents in the expected situat on. Starting the usual resuscitation is the best chaice when there is no time and the baby arrived. The decismn of (DNAR) should be made by the ethical hospital committee or supervising consultant and should be powered by national legislations
