A study on knowledge and practice of neonatal resuscitation among nursing staff

Abstract

Birth asphyxia is a major cause of global neonatal death. One of the effective measures to prevent these deaths is to have skilled birth attendants in neonatal resuscitation. Several trials have shown that basic neonatal training can decrease neonatal deaths. My study is a cross-sectional observational study to determine the knowledge and practice about neonatal resuscitation among nursing staff working in up to secondary level care.
