Subject: Draeger transcutaneous bilirubinometer evaluation/audit
--- This message was sent from an email address external to NHSmail but gives the appearance of being from an NHSmail (@nhs.net or @hscic.gov.uk) address. The recipient should verify the sender and content before acting upon information contained within. ---
We are planning a clinical audit of the use of the Draeger transcutaneous bilirubinometers used by our community midwife team. The aim of the audit is to assess the clinical effectiveness of the meters in screening babies who require referral and treatment and to compare the values from the meter to the results produced when they babies arrive at the hospital for further assessment.
I was wondering if anyone else has audited the use of this instrument and would be willing to share the structure and content of the audit? I would also be interested in any evaluation data comparing the meters to lab methods or other available POCT methods for bilirubin?
Best wishes
Joanne Morris
