Helping Babies Breathe Training of pre-service Nursing and Midwifery Students in Uganda: Assessment of Feasibility, Acquisition, and Retention of Knowledge and Skills

This project addresses the critical gap in neonatal resuscitation training among pre-service nursing and midwifery students in Uganda. By conducting a cluster randomized controlled trial, it will evaluate the feasibility, knowledge acquisition, and retention of HBB training. The project aims to integrate HBB into curricula, build faculty capacity, and ultimately reduce neonatal mortality. Its relevance aligns with Uganda’s Vision 2040, NDP III, and SDG 3, ensuring a healthier and more productive population through improved maternal and child health outcomes.
