Impact of video-assisted neonatal resuscitation on newborns and resuscitators: A feasibility study.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

High-risk deliveries are still common due to the increased use of assisted reproductive technologies. In Japan, despite centralization of labor, about half of all deliveries are still carried out in obstetric clinics. Telemedicine support is important for neonatal resuscitation involving urgent, life-altering professional judgment in local deliveries. This feasibility study examined the effects of using medical communication software on the quality of neonatal resuscitation, and the physiological parameters of the newborn and stress of the resuscitators.

Methods

This observational study included cesarean births with ≥ 36 weeks gestational age at Kagoshima City Hospital between January 1, 2023 and 2024. A camera on the neonatal resuscitation table allowed a neonatologist
