Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  cardiopulmonary resuscitation training  The primary caregiver will be demonstrated resuscitation by Primary Investigator or a Nurse who is trained in Basic NRP course once the eligible neonate in NICU is stable and ready for discharge. They will be taught a modified version of basic NRP as shown below(fig1). The caregiver will be allowed to practice(hands on) using Baby Ann mannequin, Self inflating bag, Delee’s mucus extractor and a shoulder roll till she is confident and able to do all the steps appropriately. One day prior to discharge, she/he will be assessed and scored. A score of all 75% that icludes 4 mandatory steps(bold letters table 1) is considered to be passed. If she scores less than the required score, she will be re-trained and allowed to practice. On the day of discharge, she will be allowed to attempt re-test and scored again.

Brief Summary  

Vulnerable infants like premature, low birth weight, neurologically abnormal are more prone for sudden infant death syndrome. The significant number of these events occur at home post-discharge. If the parents are able identify warning signs and able to provide resuscitation, most of these sudden events can be reduced. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation teaching for parents before an infant’s hospital discharge is the usual practice in many neonatal intensive care units. Our hospital data(NNPD) from 2017 January to December showed 292 babies <2000g were admitted in our NICU. Out of which 5 babies had post discharge postnatal death. Hence, to prevent these events, this study is undertaken with the above objectives. However the evidence for this is very limited in developing countries like India.
