Neonatal asphyxia is a leading cause of neonatal death that is largely preventable with neonatal resuscitation techniques. In July 2004, China launched a 15-year, three-stage Neonatal Resuscitation Programme (NRP) with stages in 2004-2009, 2011-2016, and 2017-2021 ( 1). The objective of China's NRP was to ensure the presence of at least one trained attendant proficient in neonatal resuscitation at every delivery. With consistent effort, both incidence and mortality from neonatal asphyxia decreased remarkably during 2003-2020: incidence decreased from 6.32% to 1.42% and mortality decreased from 0.76‰ to 0.19‰ ( 1- 2). China's empirical experience shows that widespread promotion of high-quality neonatal resuscitation techniques can reduce preventable neonatal deaths and provide important insight into "ending preventable deaths in newborns by 2030," as proposed in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal's third target ( 3).
新生儿窒息是新生儿死亡的主要原因，而新生儿复苏技术在很大程度上可预防这种情况。2004年7月，中国启动了一项为期15年、分三个阶段的新生儿复苏项目（NRP），三个阶段分别为2004 - 2009年、2011 - 2016年和2017 - 2021年（1）。中国新生儿复苏项目的目标是确保每次分娩时至少有一名熟练掌握新生儿复苏技术的医护人员在场。经过持续努力，2003 - 2020年期间，新生儿窒息的发病率和死亡率均显著下降：发病率从6.32%降至1.42%，死亡率从0.76‰降至0.19‰（1 - 2）。中国的经验表明，广泛推广高质量的新生儿复苏技术可以减少可预防的新生儿死亡，并为联合国可持续发展目标第三个具体目标中提出的“到2030年消除可预防的新生儿死亡”提供重要见解（3）。
