For more than 30 years, the Neonatal Resuscitation Program® (NRP®) has helped health care providers acquire the knowledge and skills to perform neonatal resuscitation. Now in its 8th edition, the NRP uses a blended learning approach, which includes online testing, online case-based simulations, and hands-on case-based simulation/debriefing that focus on critical leadership, communication, and teamwork skills. Content updates throughout the text reflect the 2020 American Academy of Pediatric (AAP)/American Heart Association (AHA) Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care. The extensively revised and updated textbook also includes several new features to enhance learning. Key Points at the beginning of each lesson. Quick response (QR) codes that enable the reader to view short videos about the topic on their mobile device. Lesson Review Questions are grouped together at the end of each lesson. Each lesson ends with Quality Improvement Opportunities and Frequently Asked Questions. New sections in Lesson 10 (Special Considerations) about resuscitation of the newborn with a myelomeningocele or an abdominal wall defect. Three Supplemental Lessons (Improving Resuscitation Team Performance, Resuscitation Outside the Delivery Room, and Bringing Quality Improvement to Your Resuscitation Team) give NRP learners the ongoing opportunity to enhance their resuscitation knowledge and performance. -- from back cover
