Summary

Intrapartum asphyxia and prematurity are the leading causes of neonatal mortality in low and middle income countries. Neonatal resuscitation training reduces asphyxia-related newborn mortality and morbidity, but in the absence of continuing low-dose, high frequency practice, these initial gains rapidly decay. The investigators propose to develop and evaluate innovative mobile virtual simulations for refresher training on neonatal resuscitation and essential newborn care to support the retention of knowledge and skills among health care workers in low and middle income countries.
