NICU discharge preparation and transition planning: guidelines and recommendations

2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

In this section, we present Interdisciplinary Guidelines and Recommendations for Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) Discharge Preparation and Transition Planning. The foundation for these guidelines and recommendations is based on existing literature, practice, available policy statements, and expert opinions. These guidelines and recommendations are divided into the following sections: Basic Information, Anticipatory Guidance, Family and Home Needs Assessment, Transfer and Coordination of Care, and Other Important Considerations. Each section includes brief introductory comments, followed by the text of the guidelines and recommendations in table format. After each table, there may be further details or descriptions that support a guideline or recommendation. Our goal was to create recommendations that are both general and adaptable while also being specific and actionable. Each NICU’s implementation of this guidance will be dependent on the unique makeup and skills of their team, as well as the availability of local programs and resources. The recommendations based only on expert opinion could be topics for future research.

“…Our team of researchers has a progressive program of research focusing on hospital discharge. As part of a larger project, we developed and implemented the engaging parents in education for discharge ( e PED) iPad application (app), a theory-based day-of-discharge teaching developed and implemented at a Midwest pediatric hospital to improve discharge teaching effectiveness and parent outcomes (Lerret et al, 2020; Johnson, Lerret, et al, 2020).…”

This study compares quality of discharge teaching and care coordination for parents of children with challenging behaviors participating in a nursing implementation project, which used an interactive iPad application, to usual discharge care. Unlike parents in the larger quasi-experimental longitudinal project, parents of children with challenging behaviors receiving the discharge teaching application (n = 14) reported lower mean scores on the quality of discharge teaching scale–delivery subscale ( M = 8.2, SD = 3.1) than parents receiving usual care (n = 11) ( M = 9.6, SD = 4.7) and lower scores on the Care Transition Measure ( M = 2.44, SD = 1.09) than parents receiving usual care ( M = 3.02, SD = 0.37), with moderate to large effects (0.554–0.775). The discharge teaching approach was less effective with this subset, suggesting other approaches might be considered for this group of parents. Further study with a larger sample specific to parents of children with challenging behaviors is needed to assess their unique needs and to optimize their discharge experience.
