Abstract
Resuscitation Training for healthcare professionals (RETAIN) is an immersive simulation-based platform that aims to improve access for neonatal resuscitation providers. This review of the research that measures the educational outcomes of training with RETAIN identified nine original research papers, two review papers, and one case study. Findings show that RETAIN is clinically relevant, engaging, improves short-and long-term knowledge and transfer of the key steps of neonatal resuscitation, and may be used as a formative or summative assessment. Further, performance on the RETAIN digital simulator was moderated by healthcare professional (HCP) attitudes, including growth mindset, and was compared across clusters obtained based on HCPs' attitudes towards technology. This simulator presents an attractive and accessible immersive learning approach towards training and assessing neonatal resuscitation competence. By improving the knowledge and skills of neonatal resuscitation providers, immersive media such as RETAIN may ultimately improve health outcomes for our smallest patients.
