It is fair to think about halting resuscitation in a newborn baby with no detectable heart beat if the heart rate is still absent after 10 minutes.

While people experience a cardiac arrest, they are talking to their family, going through the mall, or watching a game when they look to be completely normal. The best scenario in this condition would be to start a resuscitation procedure right once and ask for medical assistance, however this is a challenging situation and time is crucial to the patient's survival.

Many experts predict that within 5 minutes, 50% of people who have experienced a cardiac arrest will be dead, and that the death rate will then increase by 10% per minute after that. So in the end, everyone will pass away in ten minutes. As a result, we can say that once all resuscitation attempts have been exhausted and there is no detectable pulse rate, 10 minutes would be a reasonable time to consider resuscitation interruption.
These Neonatal Life Support Guidelines were created by Resuscitation Council UK (RCUK) based on the European Resuscitation Council Guidelines for Newborn Resuscitation and Support of Transition of Infants at Birth and the 2020 Consensus on Science and Treatment Recommendations for Neonatal Life Support . The care of the term and preterm infant is covered by the guidelines.
