The NRP 8th Edition: Innovation in Education.

The American Academy of Pediatrics/American Heart Association Neonatal Resuscitation Program® (NRP®) 8th-Edition materials were released in June 2021 and must be in use by January 1, 2022. Ongoing international review and consensus of resuscitation science since 2015 has yielded no major changes in practice. However, the NRP Steering Committee revised several practices in the interest of patient safety and educational efficiency. The NRP 8th Edition offers NRP Essentials and NRP Advanced levels of learning and 2 recommended Provider Course formats. In most hospitals, NRP Essentials and NRP Advanced will be taught using instructor-led Provider Courses. Resuscitation Quality Improvement® (RQI® for NRP®), a self-directed learning program that uses low-dose, high-frequency quarterly learning and skills sessions, may be used in hospitals that already use RQI for life support education.
