Question: What is the primary focus of Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) training?


Answer: ✔✔ The primary focus of NRP training is to provide healthcare professionals with the

knowledge and skills needed to effectively resuscitate newborns who require assistance at birth,

including the management of airway, breathing, and circulation.

Answer: ✔✔ Initial steps include assessing the newborn’s breathing and heart rate, providing

adequate warmth, ensuring a clear airway, and initiating positive pressure ventilation if

necessary.




Question: When should chest compressions be initiated during resuscitation of a newborn?

60 beats per minute despite adequate ventilation for 30 seconds.




Question: What is the recommended depth and rate for chest compressions in a newborn?


Answer: ✔✔ Chest compressions should be delivered at a depth of approximately one-third of

effort, muscle tone, reflex response, and color.




Question: What are the key components of the NRP algorithm for managing a newborn with

respiratory distress?
