OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to refine the essential newborn care practices by employing the multidisciplinary peer team-led quality improvement (QI) projects.
DESIGN: In 2017, concerning the same, the department focused on early initiation of breast feeding, prevention of hypothermia within an hour of life and rational usage of antibiotics among babies admitted to neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Baseline data reported the rate of initiation of breast feeding, hypothermia and antibiotic exposure rate as 35%, 78% and 75%, respectively. Root causes were analysed and a series of Plan-Do-Study-Act cycles were conducted to test the changes. The process of change was studied through run charts (whereas control charts were used for study purpose).
RESULT: After the implementation of the QI projects, the rate of initiation of breast feeding was found to be improved from 35% to 90%, the incidence of hypothermia got reduced from 78% to 10% and the antibiotic exposure rate declined from 75% to 20%. Along with the improvement in indicators related to essential newborn care, down the stream we found a decrease in the percentage of culture-positive sepsis rate in the NICU.
CONCLUSION: Peer team-led QI initiatives in a resource-limited setting proved beneficial in improving essential newborn care practices.
