Update on neonatal resuscitation

J S C Med Assoc. 2002 Jun;98(3):114-20.

Abstract

Pediatricians and other practitioners who attend deliveries maintain resuscitation skills throughout their careers. NRP certification and continuing education programs (PCEP) have done much to standardize the care a newborn receives in the first minutes after birth. Neonates have benefited tremendously from strong national programs (NRP and PCEP) with great local execution of training modules.
