Sponsor's own description

This study applies an iterative user-centred design approach involving frontline birth attendants to create a mobile application ("HBB Prompt") to improve skills retention after initial newborn stabilization training through the Helping Babies Breathe (HBB) program. HBB Prompt will then be piloted at one site after HBB training and skills retention will be compared with a control site without HBB Prompt after HBB training.
