Ninety  percent  of  newborn babies  make  the transition  from  intrauterine  to  extra  uterine  life requiring  little  or  no  assistance  to  begin and respirations. spontaneous regular  Approximately10%  of  newborns  requires  some assistance  to  begin  breathing  at  birth  and  only about  1%  may  need  extensive  resuscitative measures  to  survive.  Yet,  birth  asphyxia  is  a leading  cause  of  mortality  and  morbidity  in newborns and in India it contributes towards one fifth of all neonatal deaths. These deaths can be averted by proper antenatal and intrapartum care along with correct technique and steps of neonatal resuscitation. Hence, this workshop.
