Abstract

Birth asphyxia is one of the most important cause of neonatal mortality and neurological morbidity of perinatal origin. Neonatal resuscitation as per standard guidelines results in decrease in asphyxia-specific neonatal mortality and morbidity. Evidence base for resuscitation practices has been improving over successive years. However, evidence for many resuscitation practices is of lower than desired quality. In addition, contextual resource-specific necessities in a heterogenous country like India need further modifications of resuscitation practices. This article reviews the current gaps in evidence and outlines the research agenda for various steps of neonatal resuscitation.
