AIM---To evaluate the use of intraosseous lines for rapid vascular access in primary resuscitation of preterm and full term neonates.
METHODS---Thirty intraosseous lines were placed in 27 newborns, in whom conventional venous access had failed.
RESULTS---All the neonates survived the resuscitation procedure, with no long term side effects.
CONCLUSION---Intraosseous infusion is quick, safe, and effective in compromised neonates.

Keywords: intraosseous infusion lines; primary resuscitation
