Every year, an estimated 10 million babies are born, non-breathing and in need of resuscitation. Advances in management have been made over the past decades, however, approximately 700.000 yearly deaths result from this global problem. A prototype newborn resuscitation monitor (NRM) (Laerdal Global...
