A formal statechart model of immediate neonatal adaptation guidelines

Résumé

Research highlights the importance of applying physiological criteria for optimal umbilical cord clamping, underlining its lasting advantages. In response, the Division of Pediatrics, Perinatology, and Neonatology at the National University of Colombia has pioneered the Immediate Neonatal Adaptation Guideline, focusing on Physiologically-based Cord Clamping. This study has two main objectives: The first is to represent the medical guideline through a statechart model to enhance clarity and detail. Secondly, to evaluate the effectiveness of statechart models in depicting medical guidelines for educational and training purposes within a human-centric framework. In this study, a group of medical professionals and engineers designed the statechart model for the Immediate Neonatal Adaptation guideline through a progressive refinement method. The model comprises 20 states, 38 events, and 4 superstates, offering clear visual language for its evaluation by an interdisciplinary panel of engineers and health professionals. This visual representation facilitates a more explicit identification of patient states, criteria, and clinical indicators involved in the procedure. Feedback indicates general satisfaction with the Versatility, Usability, Scalability and Moderate visual complexity of the model.
