INTRODUCTION
At Singapore General Hospital, approximately 240 infants of the 1500 deliveries per annum are delivered preterm, many of very low birth weight-median of 1210 g-often have extended hospital stays, even after they are declared medically fit.
METHODS
To better understand the discharge patterns of the preterm infants in the department, a team of two neonatologists and two nurses performed a retrospective review of 36 premature infants. The underlying causes leading to and the root causes of discharge delays were identified as: Required goal weight of 2 kg, even when medically fitDelivery of discharge plan to parents delayedDischarge planning delayedNo ownership in discharge planning.
RESULTS/CONCLUSION: The length of hospital stay was reduced 59.8%, primarily by improved discharge planning, revised guidelines (mean discharge at 1915 g), and nurses' active preparation of parents psychologically and mentally for care of their babies at home.
引言
在新加坡总医院，每年1500例分娩中约有240例婴儿早产，其中许多出生体重极低——中位数为1210克——即使在宣布医学上健康后，住院时间往往也会延长。
方法
为了更好地了解该科室早产儿的出院模式，由两名新生儿科医生和两名护士组成的团队对36例早产儿进行了回顾性研究。导致出院延迟的潜在原因和根本原因被确定为：即使医学上健康，也要求达到2千克的目标体重；向父母传达出院计划的时间延迟；出院计划延迟；在出院计划方面缺乏主人翁意识。
结果/结论：住院时间缩短了59.8%，主要是通过改进出院计划、修订指南（平均出院体重为1915克）以及护士积极帮助父母在心理和精神上为在家照顾婴儿做好准备。
