Objective: Neonatal intubation skills are initially taught through the Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) and thereafter complemented by further practical clinical training. The aim of this study is to compare the ability of NRP trained individuals to successfully complete a neonatal intubation.Study Design: A prospective observational study was performed at an inborn high-risk level 3 perinatal center. Participants were postgraduate years 1 and 3 pediatric residents, neonatal-perinatal medicine subspecialty residents and fellows, and neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) respiratory therapists (RTs) with earlier NRP training. Intubations were scored on a checklist as well as a global assessment scale. Characteristics of the intubation attempt were recorded for each patient.Result: Fifty neonatal intubations were assessed, of which 73% of the attempts were deemed successful. A higher proportion of endotracheal tubes were successfully placed by RTs (100%, P
