Management of At-Risk Newborns for Hypoglycemia
IV Weaning protocol for Newborns with Hypoglycemia - Whether you're a hospital that has a Level 1 nursery or a Level 4 NICU, if you administer IV therapy, this weaning protocol can optimize treatment in newborns less than 48 hours old. Written as a provider driven protocol, this resource aims to standardize and guide clinical decisions for both asymptomatic and symptomatic hypoglycemic newborns who require IV glucose treatment.
