Abstract
Birth asphyxia is a major global burden in newborn health care. The high neonatal mortality rate (25.4 deaths per 1000 live births) in India necessitates the need for concrete efforts to be taken to reduce these preventable deaths. Developing competence among nurses for conducting neonatal resuscitation can improve neonatal outcomes. To flourish as skilled personnel, nursing students must be taught effectively. Video and simulation-based instruction have been reported to be effective over a chalk board for inculcating knowledge and skills among students. The primary objective of the study was to compare simulation-based teaching on neonatal resuscitation vs. video instruction among undergraduate nursing students.
