Neonatal Guidelines for Coombe Hospital

Access to Medical Information at the point of care is critical in ensuring safe and effective medical practices. Medical eGuides (MEG) apps provide a way for clinicians to deliver their guidelines, protocols and clinical practice guides to staff members on their own mobile devices. Access to this information at the point of care provides immediate guidance and helps to improve patient outcomes.

The Coombe Neonatal Guidelines are now available in mobile app format for smartphone devices. It includes practical evidence-based guidance on the appropriate use of medication including antimicrobials for the management of certain conditions in premature and full term infants. This app also provides advice on the appropriate use of parenteral nutrition for new born infants.
