BACKGROUND Substantial health care resources are expended on standardised formal neonatal resuscitation training (SFNRT) programmes, but their effectiveness has not been proven. OBJECTIVES To determine whether SFNRT programmes reduce neonatal mortality and morbidity, improve acquisition and retention of knowledge and skills, or change teamwork and resuscitation behaviour. METHODS We searche...

Appropriate resuscitation must be available for each of the more than 4 million infants born annually in the United States. Ninety percent of infants transition safely, and it is up to the physician to assess risk factors, identify the nearly 10 percent of infants who need resuscitation, and respond appropriately. A team or persons trained in neonatal resuscitation should be promptly available ...

We conducted a retrospective analysis of neonatal resuscitation following “low risk” caesarean delivery over a 12-month period from 1st July 2001 to 30th June 2002. An SHO attends all such births to receive and assess the baby and resuscitate if required. Attendance at deliveries takes precedence over other responsibilities. The midwife present is fully trained in neonatal resuscitation. Th...

background: preterm birth (ptb) is responsible for 70% of neonatal mortalities. various factors influence the risk of neonatal mortality in different populations. objective: our objective was to evaluate neonatal survival rate of preterm infants, and to define its predictors in iranian population. materials and methods: this retrospective cohort study included all preterm (26-37 weeks) infants ...

Many patients arrive in hospitals when they are acutely ill and are hoping for rescue treatment that will save their lives, but also deal with the primary cause of the acute illness. It is therefore important that all staff involved in the care of such patients is adequately trained and proficient in deliverin...
