Effect of repeat refresher courses on neonatal resuscitation skill decay: an experimental comparative study of in-person and video-based simulation training

Table 1 Comparison of skills and knowledge of Filipino nurses before in-person HBB training

Parameter	Pre-training	p-value for difference between groups, pre-training*
Time to initiate BMV, seconds, mean (SD)	103 (10)	0.89 (n = 4)
Successful BMV, n (%)	0 (0)	NA
Knowledge examination score, mean (SD)	12.5 (2.1)	0.95
Knowledge examination pass rate, n (%)	20 (40.8)	0.62
Practical examination score, mean (SD)	3.29 (1.8)	0.53
Practical examination pass rate, n (%)	0 (0)	NA

HBB Helping Babies Breathe, BMV Bag-mask ventilation, NA Not applicable, SD Standard deviation
*Difference between groups: analysis of variance; knowledge examination pass rate: Fisher's exact test. Proportions of successful BMV and practical examination pass rates were unable to be calculated given a denominator of zero. Of note, at initial assessment, only 4 participants were able to appropraitely ventilatre, but all well past the acceptable 60s mark
