Abstract

The modern neonate differs greatly from newborns cared for a half-century ago, when the neonatal-perinatal medicine certification examination was first offered by the American Board of Pediatrics. Delivery room resuscitation and neonatal care are constantly evolving, as is the neonatal workforce. Similarly, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education review committees revise the requirements for graduate medical education programs every 10 years, and the modern pediatric medical trainee is also constantly evolving. Delivery room resuscitation, neonatal care, and pediatric residency training are codependent; changes in one affect the other and subsequently influence neonatal outcomes. In this educational perspective, we explore this relationship and outline strategies to mitigate the impact of decreased residency training in neonatal-perinatal medicine.
