Résumé

Intraventricular hemorrhages remain a major problem in neonatology, because their complications affect neonatal morbidity, mortality, and long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes. The aim of this project was to prevent intraventricular hemorrhage in premature infants during their first days of life in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). This pre- and post-implementation clinical audit project used the JBI Evidence Implementation Framework and was conducted in a tertiary-level Spanish NICU with a consecutive sample. A baseline audit was conducted using 13 audit criteria derived from JBI summaries of the best available evidence. This was followed by the implementation of an action plan, which included a care bundle and health care professionals' education. These improvement strategies were then evaluated using a follow-up audit. The baseline and follow-up audits evaluated 54 and 56 infants, respectively. The follow-up audit showed 100% improvement for Criteria 2, 3, 6, and 7, which covered sleep safety and noise. Criteria 12 and 13, which covered cord clamping and positioning the infant, improved by 25.99%. Criterion 9, on antenatal corticosteroids, showed a slight improvement of 5.56%. This study increased compliance with an evidence-based, family-centered care approach to preventing intraventricular hemorrhage in premature infants. This was achieved by conducting a baseline and follow-up audit, implementing a training program, and keeping more comprehensive nursing records. Further studies could assess the long-term effectiveness of interventions and/or the incidence of intraventricular hemorrhage and neurodevelopmental disorders in premature infants. http://links.lww.com/IJEBH/A262.
