Worldwide, four million neonate deaths happen annually,and birth asphyxia accounts for one million deaths. Increasing providers’ knowledge of neonatalresuscitation and improving its practice is critical for delivering quality care and for morbidity and mortalit reduction. Objective: To assess knowledge, practice and associated factors towards neonatal resuscitation among midwives working in delivery room of public health centers at Addis Ababa city, Ethiopia 2023. Methods: Institutional based cross-sectional study design was employed among 141 study population selected by simple random sampling method. Self-administered questionnaire and interview guide were used to collect data. Data was entered to Epidata 4.6 and exported to Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 26 for analysis. The association between the dependent variable and independent variables were analyzed using binary logistic regression.Adjusted odds ratio with 95% CI was computed and variables with p-value ≤ 0.05 were considered as statistically significant. Result: A total of 134 participants were included in the study with a response rate of 95%. Only 42.5% and 26.9 % of the participants had the appropriate level of knowledge and practice towards neonatal resuscitation respectively. Lack of training (AOD=2.47, 95% CI: 1.0865.640,Pvalue=0.031),unavailability of guidelines (AOD=4.34, 95% CI: 1.78-10.59, P-value=0.001)and absence of supportive supervision (AOD=3.27, 95% CI: 1.38-7.74, P-value= 0.007) were significantly associated with poor knowledge. While educational level (AOD=3.34, 95% CI: 1-11, P-value= 0.048), lack of training (AOD=3.32, 95% CI: 1.17-9.4, P-value= 0.024) and unavailability of guidelines (AOD=4.57, 95% CI: 1.47-14.12, P-value= 0.009) were significantly associated with poor practice.
