The Impact of Pedagogical Framework in Education of Neonatal Resuscitation

Summary

Virtually 10% of newborns suffer respiratory distress at birth thus need intervention from proficient health professionals. Pakistan is one of the top ten countries that carry two-thirds of the global burden of neonatal deaths. It is suggested that most of these deaths can be prevented through the provision of trained emergency birth attendants, in which education plays an integral role. Since its inception in the neonatal resuscitation program, we are still in the struggle to find out the best strategies to disseminate NRP knowledge, training, and guidelines that promise the best outcome. Hence, little published data on this phenomenon is available regarding undergraduate students. That determines the best way to educate them in performing the skills that urgently require an infrequent needed such as neonatal resuscitation. Therefore, this study intended to address this gap in the education of neonatal resuscitation through two different approaches. One is a traditional 2-step method and the other is an adapted Pedagogical framework (Lean, See, Practice, Prove, Do and Maintain).

Pedagogical Framework (Learn, See, Practice, Prove, Do, and Maintain)

The "Learn, See, Practice, Prove, Do, and Maintain" (LSPPDM) pedagogy is acting as a guiding path for educators in teaching and learning procedural skills. It is synthesized after intensely reviewing the literature comprises steps. In the 1st step, learners learn through didactic lectures, further proceeding to see procedural videos. The 3rd step, "Practice" expose learners to perform the skill on a simulator. In the 4th step "Prove" the learner proves the skill. The 5th step Do comprise real-life exposure through the clinical rotation. Then, finally the 6th step"Maintain" the learner maintains skill supplemented with simulation as needed.

OTHER

Traditional Method

The traditional method group learns through 2-step method. 1. didactic lectures on neonatal resuscitation were delivered. 2. Practice skill on mannequins
