Why are Multidisciplinary Rounds Important in Neonatal Care?
The primary goal of MDR in neonatal care is to provide holistic and coordinated care. Neonates, especially those in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), often have multiple health issues that require input from various specialists. Effective communication and collaboration during MDR help in:
- Reducing the risk of medical errors. - Ensuring consistency in treatment plans. - Addressing the physical, emotional, and social needs of both the neonate and the family. - Facilitating early identification and intervention for potential complications.
