Figures & data

Table 1. Training participants’ (n = 18) perception of telesimulation (five being the highest rating)

Statement	Rating (five-point Likert-like scale) median (IQR)
I have enjoyed the telesimulation session.	5 (5–5)
I have gained knowledge in the telesimulation session.	4 (4–4.25)
Telesimulation is suitable for neonatal resuscitation training.	4 (4–5)
Statement	Yes/No (numbers and percentages)
I had the opportunity to train technical skills in the telesimulation session.	Yes: 18/18 (100%)
Telesimulation offers the same training opportunities as traditional face-to-face instruction.	No: 10/18 (55.6%)
Perceived disadvantages of telesimulation in comparison to traditional face-to-face instruction: Technical difficulties (e.g., network connectivity or sound quality) Logistics related to training package pick-up and return Limited practical training opportunities Others (free text): Limited quality of supervision and feedback due to the physical distance between instructor and trainees	Yes: 14/18 (77.8%) Yes: 7/18 (38.9%) Yes: 4/18 (22.2%) Yes: 4/18 (22.2%)
