In this technical report, we describe a method for teaching the Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) courses while also maintaining social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic: a method we call 'Socially Distanced NRP.' The unique aspects of Socially Distanced NRP courses include small class sizes, keeping one group of students and their instructors together throughout the course, and creating socially distanced stations where students complete the performance skills, integrated skills, and simulation and debriefing parts of the NRP course. The four socially distanced stations include airway, chest compressions, umbilical venous catheter placement, and team leader. Feedback from 79 NRP students showed no difference in overall course rating between Socially Distanced NRP and standard NRP courses. No cases of COVID-19 transmission were identified in the Socially Distanced NRP courses. We believe that Socially Distanced NRP is a safe and effective way to provide mandatory NRP training during the COVID-19 pandemic.
在本技术报告中，我们描述了一种在新冠疫情期间教授新生儿复苏项目（NRP）课程同时保持社交距离的方法：我们称之为“社交距离NRP”的方法。社交距离NRP课程的独特之处包括小班教学、在整个课程中让一组学生及其教师在一起，以及创建社交距离站点，学生们在这些站点完成NRP课程的操作技能、综合技能以及模拟和汇报部分。四个社交距离站点包括气道、胸外按压、脐静脉置管和团队领导。79名NRP学生的反馈显示，社交距离NRP课程与标准NRP课程在总体课程评分上没有差异。社交距离NRP课程中未发现新冠病毒传播病例。我们认为，社交距离NRP是在新冠疫情期间提供强制性NRP培训的一种安全有效的方式。
