This document provides guidance on performing chest compressions during newborn resuscitation. It includes a performance checklist that outlines the steps to take when chest compressions are needed, including evaluating the baby's heart rate and respirations, initiating compressions at a rate of 100-120 per minute with the thumb technique, and discontinuing compressions once the heart rate is above 60 beats per minute. It also lists reflective questions for the learner and emphasizes key behavioral skills like effective communication and assuming a leadership role during resuscitation.
