COST EFFECTIVENESS OF A NOVEL DEVICE FOR IMPROVING RESUSCITATION OF APNEIC NEWBORNS

Newborn resuscitation is a life-saving intervention for birth asphyxia, a leading cause of neonatal mortality. Improving provider newborn resuscitation skills is critical for delivering quality care, but the retention of these skills has been a challenge.

More than 50% of newborns with congenital heart disease (CHD) are unrecognized at birth; however, the use of echocardiogram (Echo) for diagnosing CHD in newborns with asymptomatic, non-syndromic cardiac murmurs (ANCM), has not been systematically reviewed yet.

Step 2: Calculate the profit per unit by determining the average number of annual uses of the product and multiplying this by the per-unit profit. Assume, for example, that on average six units of the sampled product are purchased per year and that the profit per unit[r]

Unfortunately, an uncertainty sampling tends to create a training set that contains a dis- proportionately large number of instances from rare classes. In order to balance this effect, a modified version of a C4.5 decision tree was developed (Lewis and Catlet[r]

So the project would be well worthwhile considering. However, as the annual savings are not large and so unless the product was in short supply, it may not be worth the time and trouble.

Without improving the survival of newborns, meaningful reduction in under-five mortality is difficult. Most neonatal deaths are preventable when appropriate and timely care is sought. In Ethiopia, there is lack of evidence on the type and contribution of delays in treatment seeking to neonatal death[r]
