Description
Background: We aimed to evaluate the policies and practices about neonatal resuscitation in a large sample of European hospitals.<br />Methods: This was a cross-sectional electronic survey. A 91-item questionnaire focusing on the current delivery room practices in neonatal resuscitation domains was individually sent to the directors of 730 European neonatal facilities or (in 5 countries) made available as a Web-based link. A comparison was made between hospitals with ≤2,000 and those with &gt;2,000 births/year and between hospitals in 5 European areas (Eastern Europe, Italy, Mediterranean countries, Turkey, and Western Europe).<br />Results: The response rate was 57% and included participants from 33 European countries. In 2018, approximately 1.27 million births occurred at the participating hospitals, with a median of 1,900 births/center (interquartile range: 1,400-3,000). Routine antenatal counseling (p &lt; 0.05), the presence of a resuscitation team at all deliveries (p &lt; 0.01), umbilical cord management (p &lt; 0.01), practices for thermal management (p &lt; 0.05), and heart rate monitoring (p &lt; 0.01) were significantly different between hospitals with ≤2,000 births/year and those with &gt;2,000 births/year. Ethical and educational aspects were similar between hospitals with low and high birth volumes. Significant variance in practice, ethical decision-making, and training programs were found between hospitals in 5 different European areas.<br />Conclusions: Several recommendations about available equipment and clinical practices recommended by the international guidelines are already implemented by centers in Europe, but a large variance still persists. Clinicians and stakeholders should consider this information when allocating resources and planning European perinatal programs.<br /> (© 2022 S. Karger AG, Basel.)
