COVID-19 Preparedness -- A Survey Among Neonatal Care Providers in Low- and Middle-Income Countries

This study assessed neonatal care providers' preparedness during the COVID-19 pandemic, based on a survey conducted in 69 low- and middle-income countries. Results showed challenges such as staff and equipment shortages, increased infant mortality, and deviations from World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines. Limited family access and shared decision-making were also observed. The findings indicate a need for international collaboration to address these issues.
