Does the Use of an Automated Resuscitation Recorder Improve Adherence to NRP Algorithms and Code Documentation?

ABSTRACT:

Background

Neonatal resuscitation is guided by Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) algorithms; however, human factors affect resuscitation. Video recordings demonstrate that deviations are common. Additionally, code documentation is prone to inaccuracies. Our long-term hypothesis is that the use of an automated resuscitation recorder (ARR) app will improve adherence to NRP and code documentation; the purpose of this study was to determine its feasibility.

Methods

We performed a simulation-based feasibility study using simulated code events mimicking NRP scenarios. Teams used the app during resuscitation events. We collected data via an initial demographics survey, video recording, ARR-generated code summary and a post-resuscitation survey. We utilized standardized grading t
