Development and evaluation of a clinical nursing decision support system for the prevention of neonatal hypoglycaemia.

ABSTRACT:

Available evidence indicates that healthcare professionals ought to promptly assess the risk of hypoglycaemia in newborns immediately following birth and formulate the most suitable preventive strategies.

Methods

Nursing process as the theoretical framework, based on evidence-based nursing, standardized nursing language, and clini
