IAP-NNF Textbook of Neonatal Resuscitation for Pediatricians, Neonatologists and Delivery Room Teams | National Guideline with Algorithms, Flowcharts and 7 Performance Checklists

IAP-NNF Textbook of Neonatal Resuscitation is the first official textbook on newborn resuscitation jointly published by the Indian Academy of Pediatrics (IAP) and the National Neonatology Forum (NNF), presenting India's own resuscitation guidelines drawn from the best available evidence rather than a straight import of an international protocol. It is built as a dual-purpose resource: a training workbook, with each chapter carrying practical practice guidance and a self-assessment section, combined with a standard reference textbook that goes beyond the skill-transfer objectives of a training course alone. Spread across 9 sections and 24 chapters, it moves from the basics (anatomy and physiology of resuscitation, equipment preparation, initial newborn care, positive pressure ventilation, laryngeal mask airway) through advanced steps (endotracheal intubation, chest compressions, resuscitation medications) into special scenarios (preterm babies, pneumothorax and pleural effusion, congenital malformation, multiple pregnancy, and newborns of mothers with HIV or SARS-CoV-2 infection), postresuscitation care, the evidence base behind current practice, the evolution of international guidelines, ethical issues and end-of-life care, and closing chapters on resuscitation in low-resource settings, communication and counseling, quality improvement, and training and capacity building. Each chapter opens with a color-coded 'Lessons to Learn' objectives box, builds through data tables and clinical photographs of actual resuscitation equipment, includes a worked case-scenario box, and closes with a 'Key Points' summary and a references list. A full-page color-coded neonatal resuscitation algorithm flowchart, together with a target preductal SpO2 reference table, anchors the clinical decision-making content, and the book carries 7 step-by-step Performance Checklists plus a Performance Evaluation Test checklist for skills training. Who This Book Is For: Pediatricians and Neonatologists: a national, evidence-based consensus reference for the resuscitation protocol used in Indian delivery rooms and NICUs. Pediatrics and Neonatology Postgraduates: the step-by-step performance checklists and chapter-end self-assessment sections work as a structured skills-training workbook for trainees learning resuscitation technique. Obstetric and Delivery Room Teams: covers predelivery risk anticipation, team briefing and communication protocols that depend on close coordination between the obstetric and neonatal teams. Nurses and Other Newborn Care Providers: written to meet the needs of all healthcare providers involved in newborn care, with practical checklists usable by any trained team member. Why This Book Helps: Replaces guesswork with a national consensus protocol: gives India-specific resuscitation guidelines built from the best available evidence, instead of requiring teams to adapt an international protocol. Turns training into a structured, checkable process: 7 Performance Checklists plus a Performance Evaluation Test checklist convert an abstract skill into a step-by-step, assessable procedure. Prepares teams for scenarios beyond the routine: dedicated chapters on preterm babies, pneumothorax, congenital malformation, multiple pregnancy and infection-affected mothers extend the book past basic PPV and chest compressions. Covers the whole care pathway, not just the first minute: postresuscitation hypoxia management, ethical decision-making around termination of resuscitation, end-of-life care, and quality-improvement chapters carry the book beyond the golden minute into the full clinical and institutional picture. Builds team behavioral skills, not just individual technique: dedicated content on team leadership, communication, task allotment and predelivery briefing addresses the human-factors side of resuscitation outcomes. Key Features: First official joint IAP-NNF national textbook on neonatal resuscitation, spanning 9 sections and 24 chapters. 7 step-by-step Performance Checklists plus a Performance Evaluation Test checklist for structured skills training. Color-coded chapters with Lessons to Learn objective boxes, worked case-scenario boxes, and Key Points summaries throughout. Full-page neonatal resuscitation algorithm flowchart with target preductal SpO2 and initial oxygen concentration reference tables. Dedicated chapters on resuscitation in low-resource settings and in newborns of HIV- or SARS-CoV-2-affected mothers, alongside ethics, end-of-life care and quality-improvement content.
