The Newborn Hypoglycemia Prevention and Care expert team decided developing a statewide hypoglycemia protocol to manage the at-risk newborn should be a goal of this project. Utilizing evidenced-based practice and tapping into the expert knowledge of our providers across the state is how we plan to accomplish this.
If your unit currently has a hypoglycemia protocol or algorithm that guides clinical practice, please consider sharing it with PQCNC. Your unit practices will help develop a statewide clinical algorithm to help standardize care for newborns in North Carolina. Submit your algorithm here
