Interdisciplinary in-situ simulation may promote quality care in neonatal resuscitation. However, there is limited information regarding the effect of multidisciplinary in-situ simulation training (MIST) on neonatal outcomes.

Each simulation was facilitated by two instructors and performed by three health care providers from obstetric and neonatal intensive care units, followed by a debriefing of the participants and several designated observers. The incidence of neonatal asphyxia, severe asphyxia, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), and meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS) before (2017\u20132018) and after (2019\u20132020) the commencement of weekly MIST were analyzed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>There were 81 simulation cases including the resuscitation of preterm neonates of different gestational ages, perinatal distress, meconium-stained amniotic fluid, and congenital heart disease with 1,503 participant counts (225 active participants).
