Answer (2)

Sodium bicarbonate is the correct treatment for acidosis caused by asphyxia neonatorum, as it helps to raise blood pH. Other options like dexamethasone, dextrose, and naloxone do not address the acid-base issue. Sodium bicarbonate is effective in counteracting respiratory acidosis due to asphyxia. ;
