Training
Support in a first stage of PMC imlementación Hospital second level or higher that has Newborn Unit, and then a second stage to perform a quality control and support the new PMC kangaroo Prestadporas training institutions of Health Services (IPS) that you attend preterm and / or low birth weight in capital cities, cities baseman departments of Colombia or foreign countries.

Expected results: The MMC is an excellent alternative for the child care or LBW rematuro, ut only if the rules are reset, chapels and rational utilization of human resources and technical Madison, to articulate when they are not sufficient to demand , as is the case of Colombia. The results wait for me are:

  • Reduce costs for the department, the hosital and family to maximize the economic resources invested in the care of the newborn.
  • Reduce the overhead of service when the number of premature exceeds the capacity of motherhood.
    More rational use of available resources (early exit, thanks to the MMC allows the use of incubadpora for a child sicker.)
  • Reduce the rate of hospital infection and therefore the child mporbimportalidad, and cost, both human and material.
  • Set up a monitoring high risk for these children to cporregir neurosicomotpor deviations and sensory development before establishing the sequels (the rematurez retinoatía, arálisis brain roblems of refraction and hearing).
  • To provide and strengthen the fragile ARENT of these children, the feeling of being resonsables cometentes and to raise her children.
  • Encourage breastfeeding, not only for premature infants, but also for all children hospitalized in the service, and that education on this matter, it is collectively in the service.
  • Establish a strict nutritional control, articularly until the age of 40 weeks (post-concecional age), allowing lead to this date, the LBW premature infant or to a state as close as possible to a term infant, giving also tools to develop as healthy as possible.
  • To promote teamwork, which ERMITE a more humane and effective abpordaje child at risk, as is being rematuro or LBW
  • Improving the health indicators of the institution and the target population.
