AI Article Synopsis
- - The study focuses on improving facemask ventilation in neonatal resuscitation through training, finding that a novel neonatal simulator led to high competence levels in healthcare providers throughout a 9-month period.
- - Researchers conducted a prospective observational study, examining simulation cases and skill elements while analyzing data to determine the best training frequency and dose for maintaining high ventilation competence.
- - Results indicate that conducting 5 or more training sessions within the 9 months significantly predicted high overall competence scores, with specific frequencies enhancing performance in certain skills, suggesting the need for tailored training schedules.
Article Abstract
Introduction: Facemask ventilation is a crucial, but challenging, element of neonatal resuscitation.In a previously reported study, instructor-led training using a novel neonatal simulator resulted in high-level ventilation competence for health care providers (HCPs) involved in newborn resuscitation. The aim of this study was to identify the optimal frequency and dose of simulation training to maintain this competence level.
Methods: Prospective observational study of HCPs training through 9 months. All training was logged. Overall ventilation competence scores were calculated for each simulation case, incorporating 7 skill elements considered important for effective ventilation.Overall scores and skill elements were analyzed by generalized linear mixed effects models using frequency (number of months of 9 where training occurred and total number of training sessions in 9 months) and dose (total number of cases performed) as predictors. Training loads (frequency + dose) predictive of high scores were projected based on estimated marginal probabilities of successful outcomes.
Results: A total of 156 HCPs performed 4348 training cases. Performing 5 or more sessions in 9 months predicted high global competence scores (>28/30). Frequency was the best predictor for 4 skill elements; success in maintaining airway patency and ventilation fraction was predicted by performing training in, respectively, 2 and 3 months of 9, whereas for avoiding dangerously high inflating pressures and providing adequate mask seal, 5 and 6 sessions, respectively, over the 9 months, predicted success. Skills reflecting global performance (successful resuscitation and valid ventilations) and ventilation rate were more dose-dependent.
Conclusions: Training frequency is important in maintaining neonatal ventilation competence. Training dose is important for some skill elements. This offers the potential for individualized training schedules.

Mental preparation of karateka for sports competition in kata.
Front Sports Act Living
January 2025
Institute of Sport Science and Innovations, Lithuanian Sports University, Kaunas, Lithuania.
Mental preparation for sports competition in karate is significant, as it is deeply embedded in the philosophical and ethical values that underpin this combat method. In practice, the mental preparation of karateka varies depending on the type of competition, for example preparation for kata (forms) and kumite (fights). Thus, this perspective offers a concise account of the authors' viewpoint on the leading mental skills required of kata competitors.

Purpose: Stroke results in long-term impacts on a person's life requiring ongoing management after formal rehabilitation ends. Coaching can support people to build competencies and skills for managing health-related challenges and has the potential to support stroke survivors to continue achieving goals on their own following rehabilitation. This review sought to describe the research on coaching interventions for adults living with stroke.
