Babies born not breathing at birth require effective gentle ventilation to survive and avert organ damage if initial resuscitation steps such as drying, and stimulation are unsuccessful at facilitating breathing. Training of health workers to impart skills on ventilation is a way to prevent these adverse outcomes. Effective ventilation skills are typically acquired through training programs such as Helping Babies Breath (HBB). However, these ventilation skills quickly decay following training and current skills retention methods such as refresher courses are costly and there is a paucity of skilled human resources to effectively facilitate frequent HBB training courses. This raises the need to explore approaches that are independent of retraining for skills maintenance. The investigators hypothesize that simulation enhanced HBB training followed by self-administered ventilation practice (SAVP) sessions with the Augmented Infant Resuscitator (AIR) as an electronic coach will result into ventilation skills retention over 12 months. SAVP allows participants to maintain practice and training to enhance skills retention.

Simulation enhanced HBB is a one-day course delivered using a format of Explain, Demonstrate and Facilitate practice. Compared to the standard HBB training, the simulation enhanced HBB course is designed with increased peer-to-peer feedback and scripted expert facilitator feedback at HBB practice exercises.
