Summary

Helping babies breathe (HBB) is a neonatal resuscitation training program for low-resource settings to health care workers to provide prompt respiratory support to save babies at birth. Despite massive roll-out, new-born mortality reduction has stagnated over the years. Innovative teaching methods with existing technology such as video-debriefing needs to be tested to promote competence (skills and knowledge) attainment and retention.

Conditions

  • Neonatal Encephalopathy
  • Helping Babies Breathe (HBB) Training

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Video-debriefing with standard HBB training compared with standard HBB training only

We will use the AAP training curriculum for the HBB 2nd edition through out the training and course assessments pre-and post- training and during follow-up period. Both intervention arms will a 2 days training consisting of: lectures, neonatal resuscitation demonstrations using NeoNatali mannequin, and practical skills s sessions. Pre- and post-tests knowledge (MCQs) and skills (bag mask ventilation, OSCE A, \& OSCE B) will be given to all participants. In the intervention arm, in addition to standard training, participants will work in teams of three (birth attendant, mother, and an assistant) to perform different HBB case scenarios. These will be filmed and used for subsequent debriefing after each case scenarios. After all participants in the intervention have had the opportunity to participate in the debriefing, then a post test is done to assess performance. Analysis is done to compare the intervention and control arms performances.
