C4 - Preparing for Potential Neonatal Compromise: Intrapartum Triggers and Neonatal Assessment
Title: C4 - Preparing for Potential Neonatal Compromise: Intrapartum Triggers and Neonatal Assessment
Disciplines: Childbearing (CB), Newborn Care (N)
Learning Objectives:
- Describe maternal and fetal indications for Neonatal Team presence at birth
- Evaluate EFM tracings that may indicate neonatal compromise at birth
- Review quality outcomes before and after implimenation of maternal and fetal triggers
For high-risk deliveries, a team of neonatal providers should be present prior to birth for optimal neonatal outcomes. A set of predefined criteria to notify the neonatal team decreases variation, improves performance, and optimizes outcomes. This presentation outlines the process of creating and implementing a list of maternal and neonatal triggers requiring neonatal provider presence at birth. Outcomes related to implementation will be discussed.
