An update of the national recommendations on neonatal resuscitation elaborated by the Neonatal Resuscitation Work Area of the Fetal-Neonatal Studies Committee (CEFEN) of the Argentine Society of Pediatrics (SAP) is presented. These recommendations are original and in their elaboration, we have taken into account the best available evidence gathered by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) as well as an exhaustive review of publications and discussions in the area to define controversial issues. Relevant concepts and major changes are described and analyzed. These recommendations refer to support for the transition at birth and to resuscitation of newborns, focusing on safety and effectiveness. We include a section on the importance of teamwork and its impact on results when we proceed with an adequate organization.
