Trainer · Neonatal resuscitation

Practise the first minute before it counts.

The learner resuscitates a simulated newborn at a radiant warmer, from the first breath to the last step, and gets a scored debrief.

The simulated newborn on the radiant warmer, pink and settled, in a diaper with its cord clamped and its arms open on the sheet.

One case in the trainer’s virtual room, a frame for every second.

  1. Born blue, floppy and not breathing. The clock starts.
  2. Mask on: breaths from the first minute.
  3. The monitor answers: the heart rate climbs toward 100.
  4. Past 100: mask off, pink, breathing and crying.

Four moments from one case in the trainer’s virtual room.

  1. 0:00 Born blue, floppy and not breathing. The clock starts.
  2. 0:40 Mask on: breaths from the first minute.
  3. 2:18 The monitor answers: the heart rate climbs toward 100.
  4. 2:44 Past 100: mask off, pink, breathing and crying.

1:00

A newborn who is not breathing should be ventilated within the first minute of birth.

A full resuscitation, from the warmer to the debrief.

  1. 01

    Birth

    Blue, limp, not breathing. The tools within reach.

  2. 02

    Act

    Ventilate, compress, give epinephrine. The monitor responds.

  3. 03

    Debrief

    A score, every missed or late step, the first minute timed.

First-person view at the radiant warmer three seconds after birth: the newborn dusky and not breathing, a T-piece, a suction bulb, a pulse oximeter and a towel laid out around it, the monitor still blank.
Birth: the baby arrives blue and not breathing, every tool in reach.

A newborn that looks like one

A practitioner first assesses a newborn by its tone, breathing and cry. In the trainer, all three respond to the care given, and so does its colour.

A training tool, not a medical device. Its physiology is a teaching approximation.
