Innovative resource for interactive, simulation-based teaching and learning
The Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) is an educational program jointly sponsored by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the American Heart Association (AHA). The course is designed to teach an evidence-based approach to newborn resuscitation to healthcare professionals who care for newborns during delivery.

The NRP, 8th edition, introduces a new educational methodology to better meet the needs of healthcare professionals who manage newborn babies.
