S.T.A.B.L.E. 6th Ed.

Course Overview

The S.T.A.B.L.E. program is designed for the period following resuscitation of the newborn or neonate until care is transferred to the neonatal transport team or members of the neonatal or pediatric ICU team. The Program is also useful for maternal/child healthcare providers who care for well newborns or newborns who may become ill. The mnemonic based tool focuses on the post-resuscitation care of sick neonates including physical assessment, problem recognition and patient management. The S.T.A.B.L.E. Program is a concise, directive tool to assist healthcare providers to organize the myriad of details and interventions necessary to provide care to a sick and/or premature infant. The Program has also evolved to serve as an orientation tool for the neonatal ICU and neonatal transport teams.
