Approximately 15% of infants require stimulation in low-resource settings, but data on effectiveness of different stimulation approaches are limited. We aimed to compare two recommended approaches of stimulation (back rubs vs. foot flicks) in reducing the need for face-mask ventilation in newly born infants who were not crying immediately after birth in a low-resource setting.

Abstract

Approximately 15% of infants require stimulation in low-resource settings, but data on effectiveness of different stimulation approaches are limited. We aimed to compare two recommended approaches of stimulation (back rubs vs. foot flicks) in reducing the need for face-mask ventilation in newly born infants who were not crying immediately after birth in a low-resource setting.
