Self-assessment Tool for Implementing the ESCNH

Sponsor: Global Foundation for the Care of Newborn Infants

Summary

This study aims to develop a tool for hospitals to self-assess the implementation of the European Standards of Care for Newborn Health (ESCNH), standards defining best-practice procedures for neonatal care. The tool shall support healthcare professionals across Europe to measure the level of implementation of the ESCNH, to identify variations in care delivery, and ultimately to improve neonatal care. To achieve this, healthcare professionals from all relevant backgrounds and parent representatives will be invited to take part in an electronic Delphi consensus approach. A subsequent pilot-testing among at least 10 hospitals across Europe will refine the developed tool, indicate potential errors, ensure user-friendliness, and improve the applicability.
