Summary

Despite efforts for initial training in neonatal resuscitation, health professionals show a decline in post-training skills, requiring continuing training. This randomized controlled pilot study will compare the feasibility and preliminary effects of two educational tools in the field, namely the traditional teaching method (instructor-assisted deliberate practice) and an educational tool developed during the research project that involves repeated peer-guided practice. Both groups will perform the same educational activity using a mobile training station equipped with the equipment necessary for the PPV. Each session will be of 30 minutes and will be repeated three times over a period of three months.

Interventions

OTHER

Repeated practice guided by peers

This approach involves repeated, peer-guided practice. Each session will involve two participants, who will support each other using the feedback grid from the first section of the "Neonatal Mask Ventilation Competency Assessment Tool" developed by DiLabio et al. (2018) to provide feedback on practicing technical skills.

OTHER

Instructor-guided deliberate practice

In this group, practice is deliberate (PD) and is led by an instructor. Each session will be supervised by an instructor for two to four participants, and the latter will use the same feedback grid as that used in the intervention group to provide feedback.
