Incredible Story of Implementation of Newborn Resuscitation Program in India…probablylargest ever ! Stakeholders
The story is about…… • Acollaborative model of national and international professional societies with governmental and private support that can provide effective training on a huge scale within short period of time. • The ‘Hands on’ learning approach was associated with a major pre to post improvement in skills acquisition and application in the training setting.
Story is about….. • Vision of IAP leadership • Commitment at Political & Bureaucratic level • Support from AAP, LDSC, Johnson & Johnson • Arranging adequate training material • Microplan: Movement of trainers, manikins, kits…
Why Skilled Resuscitation is important in India ? Every year in India…… ….27 million women become pregnant … 1 million babies are stillborn; 300,000 intra-partum causes … about 1 million neonates die due to Infections (36%) Preterm (25%) Asphyxia (23%) • NRP can reduce asphyxia related neonatal mortality upto 2/3rd • .
Figure 5 Scaling up NRP in Public Sector is Urgent India’s Janani Suraksha Yojana(JSY), Conditional cash transfer program to increase birth in health facilities.Lancet 2010; 375: 2009-2023 • Large scale shift: from home to institutional deliveries • Urgent need of large no. of SBA’s
Engaging IAP Leadership Newborn Resuscitation Program taken under Presidential Action Plan 2009 IAPs Strength • 18,000 dedicated pediatricians • 300 branches
Resuscitation Program: Advance or Basic ! • Requirement of Birth Attendant trained in resuscitation: 0.25 million • Advance NRP training for all not feasible • Basic NRP can address most asphyxia cases • Developed the program based on Lessons 1-3 of AAP text book of NRP & Skilled birth attendants manual of LDSC
Program is named as Newborn Resuscitation Program- First Golden Minute(NRP-FGM) Program Aims to have one NRP trained person attending every delivery ( 27 millions deliveries /year in India )

Engaging Ministry of Health • Data to show birth asphyxia as major problem. • Basic NRP, a short course program, can reduce neonatal mortality substantially. • Successful implementation of the program in other developing countries. • Commitment of IAP leadership for trainings in public sector.
Ministry of Health launched Navjaat Shishu Suraksha Karyakram (NSSK) GOI and IAP have signed a MoU for training on 09-12-2009
Roll out Plan 10 States = ~ 300 Districts 4 Trainers per district 1200 Trainers planned in 4 months WHERE ? States in India where newborns are at high risk of dying
Program included Basic Newborn Care and Resuscitation Prevention of Infection Wash Hands Wear Gloves Cord Care Clean Chain Early initiation & exclusive breastfeeding Prevention of hypothermia Warm Chain Kangaroo Mother care
Expert Committee developed the module Action Plan
Selection and Motivation of Trainers • Only trainers who are highly committed and can give reasonable time are chosen • Mission mode is emphasized. • Motivation is praise, SMS at the start of training highlighting their mission, SMS at the end of training congratulating their efforts.
Quality of Training • Quality of training is given high priority. • Microplan included program details sent in advance to Organizers, Trainers, Providers. • Faculty meeting held at previous day evening, where every one’s role is planned, rehearsed. • Facility and stations checked in advance.
Emphasis on Skill and Innovation • Emphasis on ‘hands on skill’ • Role play and video’s • Pre test and post test both written and skill based are designed to improve learning • Based on feedback the process of conducting the program are improved upon
Evaluation of training- pre-test and post-test of 240 Trainers
Evaluation of training- pre-test and post-test of 240 Trainers
What are we going to do? • A sustainable system of training, retraining and certification • Follow up/ Monitoring of training • Operational Research • Impact study on mortality reduction
We conclude…… • Acollaborative model of national and international professional societies with governmental and private support can provide effective training on a huge scale within short period of time. • The ‘Hands on’ learning approach was associated with a major pre to post improvement in skills acquisition and application in the training setting.
