Posted April 3, 201213 yr Neonatal falls is an event which should never occur in any hospital. Though most of us presume that neonatal falls can never happen but unfortunately they do happen. LINK http://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/122/2/e277.full.pdf+html There is a very nice article discussing this issue and making recommendations to prevent neonatal falls. I found this article very informative. LINK http://downloads.hindawi.com/journals/ijped/2010/547528.pdf Have you had a neonatal fall in your hospital? Could you share the circumstances of the fall.
April 4, 201213 yr never had any falls but near falls could happen esp when someone forgets the latch and a hungry baby kicks the door or a baby is left unattended on a table or couch esp left ther for iv or other procedures
