Abstract

 

INTRODUZIONE: La continuitaÌ€ assistenziale nel periodo postpartum, in particolare in caso di dimis- sione precoce, è fortemente raccomandata dalle linee-guida internazionali. Un follow-up individualizzato puoÌ€ diminuire morbiditaÌ€ e mortalitaÌ€ del neonato e prevenire/iden- tificare precocemente problemi a lungo termine per madre, neonato e famiglia.Le ultime raccomandazioni italiane per l'assistenza postpartum risalgono al 2000.

SCOPO: Descrivere l'organizzazione del follow-up dei neonati sani a termine post-dimissione da parte dei centri nascita degli ospedali pubblici liguri.
Metodo: Studio descrittivo, condotto nel 2015 tramite intervista telefonica rivolta a coordinatori infermieristici (o sostituti) dei dieci centri nascita degli ospedali pubblici liguri.


RISULTATI: Tutti i centri hanno risposto. Tutti raccomandano una visita di follow-up, ma solo la metà dispone di una procedura per il percorso.
La maggior parte raccomanda la prima visita entro 2-3 giorni dalla dimissione. La metaÌ€ prevede la prima visita di follow-up presso l'ambulatorio del centro nascita; tre centri nascita non raccoman- dano ulteriori visite. Nessuno dei centri fa coincidere la visita di follow-up del neonato con il controllo postpartum della madre neÌ considera la diade madre-neonato come unitaÌ€; in genere i bisogni di madre/neonato sono individuati e soddisfatti da infermiere pediatrico/infermiere e neonatologo. Tutti i centri forniscono il recapito telefonico della unitaÌ€ operativa e otto quello dell'ambulatorio; in due centri si contattano telefonicamente le madri considerate a rischio di depressione postpartum, e in uno si comunicano telefonicamente i risultati degli screening meta- bolici, cogliendo l'occasione per informarsi sulla situazione della famiglia.


DISCUSSIONE: Lo studio descrive differenti modalità di organizzazione del percorso di follow-up tra i centri nascita liguri, in particolare riguardo tempistica e organizzazione delle visite.
Al momento non vi è una attuazione omogenea degli interventi raccomandati a livello nazionale, in particolare per quanto riguarda l'organizzazione dell'assistenza territoriale (ruolo dei consultori familiari, servizi di consulenza telefonica, precoce presa in carico dal pediatra di libera scelta).

Survey on follow-up of new born babies after the discharge from the birth centres of the Ligurian public hospitals

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Continuity of care in the postpartum period is strongly recommended by inter- national guidelines.
Several studies demonstrate how an individualized follow-up program may decrease newborn's mortality and morbidity and prevent or early identify chronic diseases or diseases with long-term effects for mother, newborn and family.

In Italy the lastest recommendations on postnatal care of mothers and newborns have been relea- sed in 2000.
AIM: To describe the organization of healthy term newborns post-discharge follow-up in the 10 birth centers of Ligurian public hospitals.

METHODS: Descriptive study, conducted in 2015 through telephonic interview with head nurses (or their delegates) of the centers.
RESULTS: All 10 birth centers participated in the study recommend a follow-up visit, but only half have a formalized procedure for follow-up. Most of them recommend the first follow-up visit within 2-3 days from discharge. Half of centers provide the first follow-up visit at the birth center's clinic, three don't recommend follow-up visits after the first one. None of them links the follow-up visit of the newborn with the mother's one; usually the needs of mother and newborn are identified and met by pediatric nurses, nurses and neonatologist. All the centers provide a telephone number for post-discharge needs. Two centers make calls to mothers considered to be at risk of postpartum depression.

DISCUSSION: The study describes different newborn care pathways related to follow-up after discharge in the Ligurian birth centers. At the moment there is no homogeneous implementation of the interventions recommended at national level.
