Dear Dr. Ikechukwu ...
Reviewing old correspondence, from CHIFA, I came across this review of your
article, 'Newborn resuscitation practices and paucity of resuscitative
devices in Nigeria; a call to action'.
As a clinical practitioner & educator of EmONC in Uganda for many years, I
am always surprised & perplexed by the continued inability to 1) adequately
train front line workers, and 2) provide & maintain adequate equipment for
these front line health professionals.
I would be very interested to know how the situation has evolved in your
jurisdiction since the publication of your excellent review.
Respectfully,
Mickey Rostoker
