Neonatal Resuscitation
The Neonatal Resuscitation course equips healthcare professionals with the essential knowledge and practical principles required to assess, stabilise, and resuscitate newborn infants during and immediately after birth. Participants will learn evidence-based neonatal resuscitation techniques, including effective ventilation, airway management, chest compressions, medication administration, and post-resuscitation care. The course also addresses the unique needs of preterm infants, special clinical scenarios, and ethical considerations to help clinicians provide safe, timely, and compassionate neonatal care.

Learning Outcomes
What you'll learn
- Understand the principles and objectives of neonatal resuscitation and identify newborns who require intervention at birth.
- Prepare the delivery environment, equipment, and resuscitation team to ensure readiness for neonatal emergencies.
- Perform an effective initial assessment using the Golden Minute approach and determine appropriate resuscitation steps.
- Deliver safe and effective positive-pressure ventilation (PPV) while evaluating the newborn's response.
- Demonstrate knowledge of advanced airway management techniques, including endotracheal intubation and alternative airway devices.
- Recognise when chest compressions are indicated and perform them using the recommended neonatal techniques.
- Identify the indications, dosages, and safe administration of medications used during neonatal resuscitation.
- Provide appropriate post-resuscitation care, monitoring, and stabilisation to support recovery and reduce complications.
- Apply specialised resuscitation strategies for preterm and low birth weight infants while minimising the risk of injury.
- Manage neonatal resuscitation in special clinical situations, adapting interventions to meet individual patient needs.
- Understand the ethical principles, communication strategies, and decision-making processes involved in end-of-life care for newborns and their families.
