A Review of the WHO Recommendations for the Care of Preterm or Low-Birth-weight Infant - Part III

For our most recent episode, I continued to summarize the updated recommendations for care of the preterm and low birthweight infant from the World Health Organization (WHO) that were just released on November 15, 2022. The World Health Organization reviews the most up-to-date research findings and they develop global guidelines that are meant to help end-users or clinicians make informed decisions on whether, when, and how to undertake specific actions such as clinical interventions, diagnostic tests, or public health measures with the aim to achieve the best possible individual or collective health outcomes. Their goal is that everyone, everywhere can attain the highest level of health.

The updated recommendations are relevant to national policy makers, NICU supervisors, managers, Neonatologist, NNPs, and NICU nurses. I think it’s extremely important for anyone who works with the preterm and low birthweight population to be aware of the updated recommendations by the World Health Organization. I also believe that it is important that parents of preterm or low birthweight infants have some idea of what the recommendations entail and how it may impact the care given to their infant. So I will finish up discussing the recommendations today spotlighting the most pertinent points.
