ABSTRACT
There are more than five million neonatal death around the world of which%19 was because of Asphyxia at birth time. In our country, there has been educational program in order to decrease the mortality caused by Asphyxia and to practice a scientific method for resuscitation. This study was conducted to determine the rate of knowledge, attitude and practice for every learner of neonatal resuscitation in the governmental current study was a descriptive cross sectional done on All Trainees who had professional direct contact with birth Asphyxia. We selected exactly 137 people who had attended Neonatal Resuscitation Workshop for three days. The subjects under the study were%62/8 midwife and%89/8 women. Data show that% 44.5 had good knowledge and% 11.7 had very good knowledge on neonatal Resuscitation. The highest acknowledge was%93/4 and%89/1 on chest compression and breath stimulation way respectively. Data also suggested that totally% 96.34 of the subjects had good and very good attitudes towards neonatal resuscitation. The results show that only% 38.4 of the subjects under the study had a good level practice and their attitudes in terms of age were significantly different [P<0.01]. Also, their practice on job showed a significant difference [P<0.017]. In the study, there was a converse relation between age and professional experience which was r = 0.25 and r = 0.26, respectively. Results obtained suggest that the amount of knowledge and practice for the subjects under the study was average, but their attitudes towards neonatal resuscitation was good. There fore, according to the positive attitude of the subjects,there must be a trend to promote knowledge and practice
