We also anticipate that this text will be an important addition to decision support toolkits that clinicians rely upon for providing individualized, patient-centered, team-based care. Welcome to the third edition of our clinical guidelines text for advanced practice nurses and other clinicians in primary care. This new text, Clinical Guidelines for Advanced Practice Nursing: An Interprofessional Approach, Third Edition, builds upon the pioneering work of nurse practitioners, certified nurse-midwives, and clinical nurse specialists that began over 35 years ago in the Ambulatory Care Center at the University of California, San Francisco. The initial clinical guidelines work focused on meeting regulatory requirements for practice, targeting across the lifespan health promotion and common health problems seen in primary care settings. In the second edition, the editors and contributing authors wrote evidence-supported clinical guidelines on common, complex chronic health problems and included chapters on health promotion for select vulnerable populations (adults with developmental disabilities and transgendered individuals). In this edition, we have continued to focus on complex chronic health problems and have scrubbed and revised all the chapters with the most current evidence-supported information. Based upon feedback from a select group of readers of the second edition, we enthusiastically added several new chapters that address prevalent and often problematic chronic issues in primary care: childhood obesity, HIV Pr EP, cancer survivorship, geriatric syndromes, and lipid disorders. Many of the previous edition chapters have undergone extensive revision: abnormal uterine bleeding, hormonal contraception, prenatal genetic screening, and immunizations to name a few. intro Duction xxvii

management of advanced nursing practice in the clinical setting how to approach these questions and where to begin to find the information necessary to properly understand the limits of one's scope of practice and what steps need to be taken to ensure that one's practice is consistent with the appropriate legal framework. In a number of states, it is necessary for nurses to develop writ-ten documentation to support their expanded practice. Different states use different terms to describe these documents and require different specific elements be addressed. In most cases, the specific requirements for each state can be found in statutes or regulations, as discussed later. An explanation of practice guidelines, such as Standardized Procedures that are used in California, can be viewed at http://www. rn. ca. gov/pdfs/regulations/npr-b-20. pdf. ❚Overview Of Sc Ope Of p ractice Lega L   f ramew O rk ❚State Regulation of Professional Practice Control of the scope of practice of healthcare professionals rests at the level of state government. Although there are some areas of professional practice—including those relating to the advanced practice nursing roles—for which federal regulations have an impact, the basic definitions and limits of professional practice are determined at the state level. This can sometimes lead to confusion. For example, some feder-al regulations dealing with reimbursement requirements for feder-ally funded programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, do address what can or should be done by advanced practice nurses. One such example is found in the Medicare Conditions of Participation for Rural Health Clinics (2013). 1 The regulations require that ❚intr Oducti On and g enera L Backgr O und Nurses, like all healthcare professionals, must act within the scope of practice as outlined in statutes and regulations. Failure to com-ply with this by exceeding the permissible scope of practice could result in professional discipline or even criminal prosecution. Advanced practice nurses (e. g., clinical nurse specialists, nurse anesthetists, nurse midwives, or nurse practitioners) frequently encounter issues related to the scope of their practice. These issues may arise as part of the individual nurse's ethical and professional concern or as a result of professional “friction” between nursing and other healthcare professions. This is espe-cially so when the advanced practice nurse's scope overlaps with areas that have traditionally been viewed as the practice of medi-cine. Regardless of what may trigger such concerns, it is imperative that advanced practice nurses and practice managers know how to ascertain what is and is not part of their scope of practice and what actions they may need to take to be in compliance with the applicable law or regulation. Clear understanding of one's scope of practice, which may in some states be defined by protocols or pro-cedures, can lead to enhanced collaboration among professionals, decreased professional tension, and safer, more effective provision of health care in clinical settings. Two key questions emerge when considering the issue of advanced practice nursing and scopes of practice. The first is the extent of what one, by virtue of being an advanced practice nurse, can do. Thus, the advanced practice nurse—or perhaps the clinical manager of a set-ting in which the advanced practice nurse is working or a collaborat-ing p hysician—wants to know the duties an advanced practice nurse may legally perform. Second, one must understand what constitutes the outer boundaries of a clinician's scope of practice. For example, one must know if there needs to be a supervisory relationship and, if so, of what nature and how it should be documented. Of course, it would be wonderful if those answers were always clear, concise, and readily available. Although that may occa-sionally be the case, it is not the rule. As such, this chapter out-lines for advanced practice nurses and those responsible for the Brian Budds and Jo anne m. Saxe Lega L Sc Ope Of a dvanced n ur S ing p ractice 1 42 CFR 491 et seq.

Although not universally the case, most of these laws—known as practice acts—are relatively easy to locate. Most states have some board or agency charged with the regulation of each of the specific healthcare professions. Using California as an example, the statutes governing the practice of nursing authorize the Board of Registered Nursing to manage the practice of nursing within California. This state agency has a website (http://www. rn. ca. gov) on which it makes available links to the specific statutes relat-ing to the practice of nursing within California (California Board of Registered Nursing, 2013). An interactive list allowing one to link to boards of registered nursing throughout the country can be found at the website of the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (2014) at https://www. ncsbn. org/115. htm. When looking at state statutes to understand issues relating to scope of practice, it should be kept in mind that statutes may be written in fairly general and expansive language rather than in point-by-point details. One can think of the statutes as setting out the broad parameters of a professional practice without spelling out each particular specific aspect of the practice. Accordingly, stat-utes may be subject to interpretation, which could lead to differing opinions as to what conduct is within or outside the scope of prac-tice. Examples of the broad language include this excerpt from the Washington State statute defining advanced practice nursing: Advanced registered nursing practice means the perfor-mance of the acts of a registered nurse and the perfor-mance of an expanded role in providing healthcare services as recognized by the medical and nursing profes-sions, the scope of which is defined by rule by the com-mission. Upon approval by the commission, an advanced registered nurse practitioner may prescribe legend drugs and controlled substances contained in Schedule V of the Uniform Controlled Substances Act, chapter 69. 50 RCW, and Schedules II through IV subject to RCW 18. 79. 240(1) (r) or (s). Nothing in this section prohibits a person from practic-ing a profession for which a license has been issued under the laws of this state or specifically authorized by any other law of the state of Washington. This section does not prohibit (1) the nursing care of the sick, without compensation, by an unlicensed per-son who does not hold himself or herself out to be an advanced registered nurse practitioner, or (2) the prac-tice of registered nursing by a licensed registered nurse or the practice of licensed practical nursing by a licensed practical nurse. (Revised Code of Washington, 2000) ❚Sources: Regulations Another authority for the control of advanced nursing practice can be found in regulations, which like statutes have the force of law. Regulations are not the result of the legislative process but rather rules or orders issued by an arm of government, such as a particu-lar agency. The process of developing regulations typically involves participating rural health clinic staff include one or more physician assistants or nurse practitioners. They further require that the phy-sician assistant or nurse practitioner work with the physician on staff to develop and review clinic policies. However, although compliance with these federal regulations is required for reimbursement for services, the individual healthcare practitioner's practice is directly regulated by the state in which she or he is licensed to practice. Thus, although the Medicare Conditions of Participation (2013) may not require that advanced practice nurses work with physicians in these settings, the rules governing who can become a nurse practitioner and what scope of practice the person has are set by the individual states and are sub-ject to significant variation from state to state. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) and its approach to accountable care organizations (ACO) demonstrate how this federal role continues to develop. The law identifies nurse practitioners among the provider types who can be considered ACO professionals, a designation that permits Medicare patients to receive care under this program and providers to share in savings. In enacting PPACA, Congress anticipated an extraordinary increase in the number of persons covered by the act and also predicted that there would be a shortage of physicians to care for these patients. Accordingly, the PPACA contemplated the expanded role of nurse practitioners. However, the initial assignment of particular Medicare beneficiaries to specific ACO entities has been limited to those ben-eficiaries who receive care from physicians. (Kendig, 2014). In response to input from many sources, the Obama Administration has proposed new federal rules to address, among other things, the assignment of beneficiaries to these ACOs even if the beneficiary receives primary care from a nonphysician provider (Medicare Program, 2014). Though not yet resolved, this issue reminds us that federal rulemaking can have an impact on our local practice. Although states clearly retain the right to define and regu-late professional scope of practice in their jurisdiction, the federal reimbursement rules can have a pragmatic, indirect role in deter-mining what each provider may do. ❚Sources: Statutes There are several sources of authority for the regulation of profes-sional practice within states (and other jurisdictions within the United States). The most basic and important of these are statutes. Statutes are laws or acts passed by the legislative body of a particu-lar jurisdiction. As such, statutes represent the voice of the people's elected representatives with regard to permissible activities. Each state enacts a professional practice act addressing the spe-cific health professions within the jurisdiction. In general, these statutes define the training requirements of healthcare profession-als and what behaviors are allowed in the practice of the profession. For example, the State of California sets the basic legal framework for the practice of nursing in its Business and Professions Code (Nursing Practice Act, 2012). Similarly, the provisions for the prac-tice of medicine, physical therapy, dentistry, and so forth are found in other sections of the Business and Professions Code. 2 CHAPTER 1 | Legal Scope of Advanced Nursing Practice

available on its website (California Board of Registered Nursing, 2013). Among the documents listed, the board has made available a statement helping to explain the statutes and regulations in regard to the roles of nurse practitioners and certified nurse specialists working in long-term-care settings (California Board of Registered Nursing, 2011). Although this kind of statement can be extremely helpful in understanding the complexities of the statutes and regulations, it does not of itself have the force of law. Even so, should a prac-tice issue ever come to the point of being litigated, courts may be inclined to give deference to the statement of specific regulatory agencies. In professional disciplinary actions, a licensing board may attempt to use such advisory statements as a basis for establishing gross negligence and incompetence. ❚Sources: Attorney General Opinions In some circumstances, issues are very complex and even con-tentious. Sometimes these situations result in an agency or some member of government seeking an official opinion from the state's attorney general to clarify issues. This may often be the case when there has been substantial change in existing statutes and regula-tions that has led to confusion or even turf battles between orga-nized medicine and advanced practice nurses. One example of this can be found in an opinion of the State of Michigan Attorney General (1980) about the ability of physicians to grant “unlimited authority” to advanced practice nurses to pre-scribe medications. One can see in reading this opinion the evolu-tion of Michigan law that led to confusion about just how much authority may be delegated and under what circumstances. In this example, a member of the state legislature asked the attor-ney general to issue an opinion. As is often the case, the opinion carefully lays out what the issues are and what the history has been that has led to the question. Then, the attorney general issues an opinion as to how she or he understands the law. Like the statements of the regulatory agencies, an attorney gen-eral's opinion does not carry the force of law. That is to say, such an opinion does not necessarily fully resolve the issue at controversy. However, courts routinely grant “great respect” or “great weight” to the opinions of attorneys general in cases that come before them. Thus, such opinions often have the power to effectively resolve a particular issue within a jurisdiction. ❚Sources: Statements of Professional Organizations Professional organizations that represent the interest of advanced practice nurses may issue statements or information about a par-ticular topic related to scope of practice. As with the other opin-ions cited here, these opinions or statements, although often very helpful, do not carry the force of law. One thing to keep in mind is that often these statements may be issued by the organization in its role as an advocate for the particular profession or advanced practice role. These position papers may occasionally be at odds with practice guidelines issued by physician advocacy groups and those who have particular expertise in an area drawing up specific rules, making them available for public comment, and then pro-mulgating or issuing them publicly. Because regulations are often developed by the agency or arm of government closest to the actual profession, they often are more detailed and specific than statutes. Regulations often spell out the details of how to implement the vision of the legislature as stated in the statutes. State health boards often provide links to scope of practice regu-lations. However, it is easier to find these links in some states than in others. Should it be difficult to find a direct link to an individual state's law and regulations, the reader may choose to do an Internet search on such terms as “advanced practice nursing statutes” or “nurs-ing regulations” and the particular state's name. Should this not help, one could always call the particular licensing agency and ask how to access the statutes and regulations governing nursing or the specific aspect of advanced practice nursing in which one is interested. Like statutes, regulations are readily available to the public. For example, in California, regulations addressing the practice of nurs-ing are found in the California Code of Regulations (California Legislative Information, n. d. ). Regulations in Title 16 address details relating to the practice of health professions, whereas those in Title 22 regulate how health care is provided in licensed institu-tions. Both require specific language. An example is the regulation describing what must appear in a “standardized procedure” docu-ment, required to allow registered nurses to practice beyond their usual scope of practice. The website of a particular state's agency charged with the regulation of healthcare professionals often has links to the state regulations surrounding a particular profession available on that website. For example, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Board of Registration in Nursing has its website as part of the larger Health and Human Services Agency's section of the state gov-ernment website (www. mass. gov). Selecting “Nursing” from the “ A-Z T opic Index,” one can choose the link to “Statutes, Rules and Regulations” (Commonwealth of Massachusetts, 2014). ❚Sources: Statements of Regulatory Agencies Unfortunately, even a thorough reading and analysis of all perti-nent statutes and regulations may not yield a definitive answer to all questions regarding one's scope of practice. The issue in ques-tion may be complex enough that a simple answer may not be available in the statutes and regulations. For example, it may not be precisely clear what an advanced practice nurse may do in a very specific clinical setting under specific circumstances. When this is the case, the governing body (e. g., Board of Registered Nursing) may issue an advisory statement or some sort of information addressing the specific concern. These statements can be extremely helpful in allowing clinical practices and individ-ual practitioners to understand what is permissible or required in a particular circumstance. For example, the California Board of Registered Nursing makes multiple documents and sources of information about these issues Overview of Scope of Practice Legal Framework 3

be a source of controversy in a medical legal case. Thus, within any treatment setting, it is important to consider a wide range of sourc-es in developing standards, protocols, or policies. A particularly helpful service offered by many professional orga-nizations is a regular legislative update. These updates often review legislation that has been passed or proposed within a year and that affects the particular area of practice covered by the organization. These updates, rather than clarify specific issues, are intended to inform readers of new laws and regulations and potential trends within the states. For example, a 2014 American Association of Nurse Practitioners report provides notes on the practice environ-ment by each state (full practice, reduced practice, and restricted practice) along with legislative alerts. ❚Other Sources There are other sources available to help understand scope of prac-tice issues as they relate to advanced practice nursing. Two deserve at least a brief mention as part of this discussion. The Center for the Health Professions is part of the University of California, San Francisco. The center engages in numerous activi-ties to improve health care through research and development projects. Among their efforts has been research into scope of prac-tice of health professionals. Their publication, Overview of Nurse Practitioner Scopes of Practice in the United States—Discussion, is a very valuable tool for understanding the state of scope of practice regulation and for accessing particular information (Christian, Dower, & O'Neill, 2007). Another valuable tool is a textbook devoted to issues relating to nurse practitioner practice and legal issues. Carolyn Buppert's (2015) Nurse Practitioner's Business Practice and Legal Guide addresses, among other topics, details about state regulation of nurse practitioner practice. It is hoped that this discussion orients advanced practice nurses to the resources for determining and understanding their particular scope of practice. ❚i SSue S re L ated t O c OLL a BO rative practice and d O cumentati O n Once the advanced practice nurse has been able to identify the resources for understanding scope of practice, it is imperative to determine the level of independence with which she or he can practice and the level of collaboration that is required by her or his jurisdiction. Furthermore, if there are requirements related to col-laborative practice, one needs to be able to determine how to meet and appropriately document those requirements. It has been widely noted that there is significant disparity in the terminology used to describe advanced practice nursing. For example, statutory language describing the nature of the required relationship between advanced practice nurses and physicians can include such terms as “supervise,” “collaboration with,” “delegate,” and even “collegial working relationship” (Ritter & Hansen-Turton, 2008). Furthermore, we have already seen that the nature of this relationship can lead—as it did in Michigan—to repeated changes in legislation and regulation that, in the end, required an attorney general opinion to sort it out. Although not a comprehensive list, the following issues are offered as a guide for understanding the possible requirements and methods of documenting compliance. Practitioners should consid-er each of these areas when attempting to set up practice or under-stand the extent of their scope of practice. ❚Fully Independent Practice As of 2014, 19 states and the District of Columbia allowed nurse practitioners to practice independently of physicians (American Association of Nurse Practitioners, 2014). That is, in such states, the nurse practitioner is permitted to diagnose, treat, and prescribe medications without supervision by or collaboration with a physi-cian. Alaska, Oregon, and Washington are examples of states that have this kind of broad scope of practice. ❚Some Collaboration, Supervision, or Delegation Required Most states require documentation of some sort of relationship with physician colleagues for the advanced practice nurse to prac-tice within that scope of practice. The nature of the “collaboration,” “supervision,” or “delegation” may vary significantly from state to state. Many states with this kind of requirement also require that there be a written agreement that sets forth the terms under which this relationship is defined. California's requirement of standardized procedures is an example of this need. ❚Collaboration or Supervision or Delegation Necessary for the Advanced Practice Nurse to Prescribe Medications in Most States Apart from the other elements of advanced practice nursing, such as diagnosis, ordering of diagnostic tests, and ordering of treatments, the issue of prescribing medications can be particu-larly difficult. The history of political and legislative difficulties in approaching this issue has been well documented elsewhere. The key issue here is that the advanced practice nurse wishing to have prescribing as part of her or his practice needs to be sure that all particular scope of practice requirements are met. In some states, advanced practice nurses' prescriptive/drug authority is delegated by a physician (e. g., T exas [T exas Board of Nursing, 2013]). Other states (e. g., California) require advanced practice nurses to have signed prescriptive agreements to prescribe, order, or furnish drugs (California Board of Registered Nursing, 2013). An example of this is found in the T exas legal framework, which allows for advanced practice without a written prescriptive agreement but requires one for the advanced practice nurse to be able to prescribe (T exas Board of Nursing, 2013). 4 CHAPTER 1 | Legal Scope of Advanced Nursing Practice

Clinical Guidelines for Advanced Practice Nursing-1 1.pdf

❚Precise Nature of the Supervision or Collaboration Required In situations in which a supervisory or collaborative relation-ship is required, advanced practice nurses and physicians need to understand the precise nature of what is required. Furthermore, when that relationship requires documentation, as in a collabora-tive practice agreement or a standardized procedure, the nature of the relationship should be spelled out in the agreement. It is advis-able to review the agreement on a regular basis to ensure continued understanding of the respective roles and responsibilities. State regulations may spell out what needs to be included in such an agreement and can be very helpful in drafting such an agreement. North Carolina's regulations are an example of how one can find excellent guidance in translating the statutes and the regulations into a workable document (North Carolina Board of Nursing, 2014). Issues that may arise or need to be documented properly include the following: 1. On-site supervision requirements: Only a few jurisdictions re-quire that a physician supervisor be physically present. When practicing in those states, advanced practice nurses should be aware of and document regulations relating to:  Length of time (i. e., percentage of working day) that the supervisor must be on site  What precisely constitutes “on site” within that jurisdiction  Whether there exist any exemption or modified require-ments for working in a particular area, such as remote rural setting or medically underserved setting 2. C hart review: A small number of jurisdictions require some level of advanced practice nurse chart review by collaborating physicians. In those states, attention should be paid to:  The precise number or percentage of charts required to be reviewed in a specific period of time  What constitutes a need for review and how it is to be documented  Whether there is a particular type of chart (e. g., one involving an adverse outcome) that requires review 3. L imitations on oversight for the collaborating physician:  In jurisdictions and settings that require some sort of physician oversight, the question necessarily arises as to how many practitioners may be supervised by a par-ticular physician. These issues may arise in terms of the number of nurse practitioners with whom a physician may enter into a collaborative relationship, the number of individual practitioners who may be supervised at one time in an on-site situation, and other settings. For example, the question arises in those jurisdictions that require anesthesiologist supervision of certified nurse anesthetists.  Advanced practice nurses and those physicians with whom they enter into collaborative relationships should be clear about the specific limitations and requirements of the oversight required. In those jurisdictions and situ-ations that require documentation of this relationship, it should be made clear in the practice agreement how many individuals are to be supervised and in what manner. ❚c Onc Luding remark S From this discussion, the reader should appreciate three important themes about the legal scope of advanced nursing practice and clin-ical guidelines: 1. The advanced practice nurse must have a thorough under-standing of the respective state's nurse practice act. There are several sources that provide context for one's professional scope of practice. 2. The a dvanced practice nurse must be able to clearly communi-cate with other registered nurses, physicians, healthcare adminis-trators, and healthcare consumers their scope of nursing practice. 3. The a dvanced practice nurse must communicate, often in writing, the legal scope of their practice in a clear, concise, and flexible manner that is in keeping with regulatory law and community standards. reference S American Association of Nurse Practitioners.

SECTION I PEDIA TRIC HEALTH MAINTENANCE AND PROMOTIONwho has not voided or stooled is being considered, a documented plan for follow-up must be ensured and parents instructed about findings that warrant immediate follow-up (e. g., vomiting, inconsolability, or abdominal distention). 2. P lan for follow-up care should be confirmed and documented before discharge (Benitz et al., 2015; Hagan et al., 2008). C. Follow-up of premature and late premature infant after discharge 1. P remature infants less than 37 weeks gestational age are commonly discharged at or near their due date. At discharge, they should demonstrate cardiorespiratory, hemodynamic, and thermal stability and adequate weight gain. Exact standards for discharge are lacking but most centers consider discharge after completion of the 35th to 37th postconceptual week and stabilization of weight at 1,800-2,000 g. a. Thos e with a complicated clinical course or birth weight less than 1,500 g are typically also fol-lowed by a specialty clinic versed in premature infant care and outcome. 2. L ate preterm (i. e., 34-37 weeks gestation), also known as “near-term” infants, are frequently discharged using the same guidelines as term infants; however, this may underestimate some ongoing needs because of their immaturity or small size. Although no clear recommendations exist for timing of follow-up, the initial outpatient visit should occur no later than the first week following discharge. 3. E nhanced risks in this population that may complicate the early neonatal period or result in rehospitalization after discharge include hyperbilirubinemia, poor feeding, dehydration sepsis, and respiratory and thermal instability (National Perinatal Association, n. d. ; Whyte & Canadian Paediatric Society, Fetus & Newborn Committee, 2010). I. Intr oduction and general background The birth of a child creates new challenges for a family. The initial outpatient visit affords the provider an opportunity to establish an ongoing relationship with the infant and family, follow up on residual issues from birth, and individualize and prioritize healthcare needs. For healthy infants, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that this initial visit occur within the first week following discharge, dependent on the duration of the initial hospitalization (Hagan, Shaw, & Duncan, 2008). A. Follow-up of healthy infant after vaginal or cesarean delivery 1. F or vaginal delivery, discharge typically at 48 hours: follow-up should occur within 48 hours of discharge (Benitz & Committee on Fetus & Newborn, 2015). 2. F or cesarean delivery, where discharge typically occurs at 96 hours, follow-up should occur within 1 week of discharge (Hagan et al., 2008). B. Follow-up of infant after early discharge 1. Ea rly discharge (i. e., hospital discharge between 24 and 48 hours) may be offered to healthy singleton infants, born at 37-41 weeks gestation, who are appropriately grown for gestational age, have no abnormal physical findings, and who were born vaginally after an uncomplicated prenatal course. Family, environmental, and social risks should be identified and addressed. Before discharge, the infant must have completed a minimum of two successful feedings, had such issues as jaundice (if present) adequately addressed and demonstrated adequate voiding and stooling (Committee on Fetus & Newborn, 2010; Benitz et al., 2015). However, normal newborns may not void or stool within the first day of life.

All newborns who develop jaundice within 24 hours of birth should have direct sero-logic or transcutaneous bilirubin assessment and a management plan established (Muchowski, 2014; Subcommittee on Hyperbilirubinemia, 2004). The National Perinatal Association further recommends that preterm/late pre-term infants have direct bilirubin assessment (serum or transcutaneous testing) at 24 hours of age and prior to discharge (National Perinatal Association, n. d. ; Phillips, 2013). e. I mmunizations deferred until 2 months post-natal age, except hepatitis B vaccine, which is recommended for all infants before 1 month.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend World Health Organization (WHO) growth records to be used for infants up to 2 years of age (Centers for Disease Control & Prevention, 2010). 3. Obs erve parent-child interactions, including holding, comforting, responsiveness, confidence, and mutual support. Assess for evidence of parental depression including use of Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) (Earls & Committee on Psychosocial Aspects of Child & Family Health, 2010). 4. R eview supportive data from relevant diagnostic tests including: a. R esults of neonatal screening. All states require newborn blood screening and screen for at least 26 of the 31 recommended conditions including organic acid disorders, fatty acid oxidation disor-ders, amino acid metabolism disorders, hemo-globinopathies, and others, differing by state (March of Dimes, 2012). i. P henylketonuria (PKU) screening should occur after 24 hours of age, but less than the seventh postnatal day. If done before 24 hours of age, the infant must be rescreened to eliminate erroneous results (U. S. Preventive Health Services T ask Force, 2014a). ii. S ickle cell screening should occur before discharge, with confirmation of posi-tive results before 2 months of age (U. S. Preventive Health Services T ask Force, 2014b). iii.

must be physiologically stable, feeding sufficiently well to support appropriate growth, able to maintain thermal neutrality in the post-NICU environment, and capable of sustaining mature respiratory system behav-ior (Barkemeyer, 2015; Centers for Disease Control & Prevention [CDC], 2014a; AAP Committee on Fetus & Newborn, 2008; Whyte, 2012). 2. C hronic lung disease (CLD) CLD is the leading cause of pediatric lung disease occurring secondary to pulmonary system immaturity or dysfunction and the additive effects of therapies, such as oxygen or mechanical ventilation support. Also referred to as “bronchopulmonary dysplasia” (BPD), CLD commonly affects the premature infant, and despite overall improved survival and advances, such as gentler postnatal ventilation strategies and exogenous surfactant therapy, it affects more than 25% of infants born weighing less than 1,500 grams ( Jensen & Schmidt, 2014). The rate of CLD/BPD increases with decreasing gestational age at birth, and more than two-thirds of infants born ≤ 25 weeks ges-tation compared to 37% of those born between 26 and 30 weeks gestation develop this condition (Farstad, Bratlid, Medbo, Markestad, & Norwegian Extreme Prematurity Study Group, 2011). Infants with CLD/BPD are at increased risk for adverse health outcomes including chronic pulmonary morbidity, pulmonary infections, long-term growth failure, sensory defi-cits, developmental delay, and mortality ( Jensen & Schmidt, 2014). a. P ostdischarge therapies that may be used to opti-mize pulmonary function and growth include sup-plemental oxygen or ventilation, cardiorespiratory monitors, diuretics, and bronchodilators as well as enhanced nutritional strategies (Kelly, 2006b). b. S upplemental oxygen aims to optimize growth and stamina, and prevent development of cor pul-monale. For those discharged on supplemental I. Intr oduction and general background Greater numbers of recuperating infants, shorter hospital stays, and complex health demands have increased the need for com-prehensive postneonatal intensive care unit (NICU) care. Survival to discharge has improved across all gestational ages, although many survivors have residual disabilities requiring specialized care, expertise by providers versed in the needs of the fragile infant, and a provider who can intervene early (Carley, 2008; Kelly, 2006a). The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has identified four categories of post-NICU infants who are considered high risk at discharge: (1) premature infants, (2) those with special health needs or who are dependent on technology, (3) those at risk because of social or family issues, and (4) those for whom early death is anticipated. Essential ele-ments at discharge include physiologic stability, active caretaker involvement and preparation to assume care, and an integrated plan for follow-up care and management (AAP Committee on Fetus & Newborn, 2008). A. Common issues for the post-NICU population include 1. The infa nt who is premature at discharge Premature infants constitute over 11% of births, and late preterm infants (of gestational age 34 0/7 to 36 6/7 weeks) comprise nearly three-quarters of preterm infants and account for most of the recent increase in numbers of preterm infants. With decreasing gesta-tional age, the incidence of neonatal complications increases; however, even late preterm infants are at risk for complications such as impaired thermoregulation, poor feeding and nutrition, gastroesophageal reflux and other gastrointestinal issues, late-onset sepsis, jaundice, or neurodevelopment impairment. These infants are also at risk for rehospitalization in the early postnatal period (Darcy, 2009; Loftin et al., 2010).

5. P ostnatal growth restriction Premature infants are at increased risk for poor feeding and growth failure and at discharge typically are below their healthy term counterparts in weight. Growth risks are compounded by the effects of chronic illness and genetic potential. Premature infants frequently need higher calories and nutrients than their healthy term counterparts. Diligently applied nutritional sup-port plays a key role in supporting adequate long-term growth and optimal neurologic development. a. H uman milk is the ideal food for all infants regardless of gestational age. However, an exclusive human milk diet may contribute to nutritional deficiencies in the recuperating post-NICU infant who has not attained adequate prenatal stores and has robust growth and recu-perative needs. It is often necessary to supple-ment calories, protein, sodium, and calcium in these infants (Barkemeyer, 2015). b. I f human milk is not available, premature formu-la and postdischarge formula may be indicated to optimize catch-up growth (Greer, 2007). c. P remature infants may require additional supple-mentation to support nutrient requirements for protein; calcium; phosphorus; sodium; vitamins, such as B 12, B6, D, E, and K; and trace minerals, such as zinc, copper, magnesium, selenium, and carnitine (Greer, 2007; Shah & Shah, 2009). d. R ecuperating infants, especially preterm infants need up to 130 kcal/kg/d to achieve adequate growth (Billimoria, 2014). Those born small for gestational age or those attempting to achieve adequate catch-up growth may require up to 165 kcal/kg/d. Chronic health issues creating increased nutritional demands, such as CLD or growth failure, may warrant increased caloric goals. e. S tructural or functional comorbidities, such as orofacial anomalies or altered tone, may compli-cate the nutritional plan (Kelly, 2006b). 6. N eurobehavioral and sensory deficits Infants recovering from the effects of initial illness or prematurity and the NICU environment may have residual neurobehavioral challenges. This risk increas-es with decreasing gestational age (Billimoria, 2014) and may include developmental delays, learning dis-abilities, hyperactivity, and cerebral palsy. Additionally, sensory deficits may include hearing or vision loss, auditory processing disorders, or language delay. a. H earing screening is recommended universally for all infants and indicated for the NICU infant before discharge. Hearing loss occurs in as many oxygen, adequate caretaker training and team planning for weaning should be assured (Andrews, Pellerite, Myers, & Hageman, 2014; Barkemeyer, 2015) c. H ome mechanical ventilation, although rarely needed, may be used for those infants unable to wean from mechanical ventilation before hos-pital discharge. Careful caretaker training and establishment of outpatient supports is essential (AAP Committee on Fetus & Newborn, 2008; Andrews et al., 2014). 3. A pnea Apnea is a serious condition for the neonate and may result from pulmonary disorders; infection; brain injury; or metabolic derangements, such as hypogly-cemia. Apnea is also a common complication in the preterm population, caused by immature central regu-lation of respiratory effort, and may be managed with oxygen or ventilator support, respiratory stimulants (e. g., methylxanthines), and cardiopulmonary moni-toring. Although typically resolved by 36-40 weeks postconceptual age, apnea caused by immaturity in some infants or “apnea of prematurity” may persist until the time of discharge. It is recommended that infants be free of significant apnea for 3-7 days prior to discharge (Andrews et al., 2014). 4. G astroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) Infants born prematurely, those whose early course included structural or functional disorders of the gas-trointestinal tract, those with pulmonary conditions requiring surgical intervention, and those with neuro-logic compromise are at risk for GERD. GERD may lead to erosive esophageal injury and may be associated with serious conditions, such as apnea, bronchospasm, aspiration, or long-term growth failure. a. P hysiologic reflux is common in infants; up to two-thirds of all infants less than 4 months of age exhibit regurgitation. b. P athologic reflux, also known as GERD, is associ-ated with complications including apnea, bron-chospasm, esophagitis, esophageal strictures, and failure to thrive. It may be managed conservatively with small, frequent feedings; upright position-ing; and medications to optimize gastric empty-ing; or it may necessitate surgical management for intractable cases. The use of thickened feedings has shown variable results, and this practice may carry risks for the immature gastrointestinal tract. In otherwise healthy infants beyond their due date it may be cautiously considered (Andrews et al., 2015; Horvath, Dziechciarz, & Szajewska, 2008). Introduction and general background 13

Clinical Guidelines for Advanced Practice Nursing-1 1.pdf

ventilation requires dedicated personnel and ongoing caregiver support including respite care. d. N utritional support may be achieved with com-plementary enteral feedings or parenteral nutri-tion. In-home use of intermittent orogastric gavage or gastrostomy feedings requires vigilant attention to safety, hygiene, and education and support of caregivers. Efforts should concentrate on encouraging oral feeding skills. e. W eaning from supplemental nutritional support can be considered when the infant demonstrates consistent appropriate growth, under the super-vision of a nutrition specialist (Barkemeyer, 2015; Kelly, 2006b). f. A p lan for emergency management in the case of equipment malfunction must be in place (AAP Committee on Fetus & Newborn, 2008). 8. P ostnatal infection Convalescing post-NICU patients, especially pre-term infants, are at risk for complications related to infections, including respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and influenza virus. Their increased vulner-ability to infections may result in acute decompen-sation and the need for rehospitalization. At-risk infants discharged during peak RSV transmission seasons (i. e., October through March in the United States) should receive RSV prophylaxis in addition to routine immunizations given at recommended intervals (AAP Committee on Infectious Diseases & Bronchiolitis Guidelines Committee, 2014; CDC, 2014b; Kelly, 2006b). B. Additional issues for the post-NICU population may include 1. S ocial and environmental risks The AAP identifies premature birth, need for hospi-talization, presence of birth defects, and infant dis-ability as risks for family dysfunction and child abuse. These risks are compounded by family and environ-mental risks, such as low socioeconomic status, lack of social supports, substance exposure, and lack of family involvement during the infant's hospitalization. Identifying strategies to enhance infant safety and family functioning before discharge is encouraged (AAP Committee on Fetus & Newborn, 2008). a. V ulnerable child syndrome is recognized as a potential outcome caused by the effects of pro-tracted neonatal hospitalization, parental anxi-ety or depression, impact of the illness on the family, or lack of social supports. This has been associated with excessive healthcare use and risk of impaired infant developmental outcome (Kokotos, 2009). as 1. 5% of all post-NICU infants (Andrews et al., 2014) and up to 50% of abnormal infant hear-ing screening occurs in NICU graduates (Kelly, 2006b). Special risks for the NICU population include a history of assisted ventilation, use of ototoxic pharmaceuticals, hyperbilirubinemia, infection, and craniofacial disorders (Andrews et al., 2014; Billimoria, 2014). Early interven-tion (i. e., at age < 6 months) enhances language development (Kelly, 2006b). Those with risks should have ongoing assessment including for-mal audiology evaluation by 30 months of age, even in cases with a normal initial hearing screen (Billimoria, 2014). b. V ision screening is recommended for preterm infants less than 1,500-g birth weight (or < 30 weeks gestation), those with a complicated medical course, and those exposed to supple-mental oxygen. Severe retinopathy occurs in approximately 7% of infants born between 24-28 weeks gestation. Even without established reti-nopathy of prematurity. NICU infants are at risk for impaired visual acuity, refractive errors, and strabismus (Andrews et al., 2014). The first examination typically occurs at 31-34 weeks postconceptual age, with regular follow-up until vascular maturity is ensured at 3-6 months (Billimoria, 2014; Kelly, 2006b). c. F ormal developmental assessment is indicated for all at-risk infants including those born pre-term or with a complicated clinical course. d. Go als of developmental follow-up include opti-mizing growth and development to maximize long-term potential, integrating the infant into family and community, and providing early intervention to reduce medical, social, and emo-tional burden (Kuppala, T abangin, Haberman, Steichen & Y olton, 2012). 7. D ependence on technology Infants with unresolved cardiopulmonary issues, such as apnea, chronic hypoxia, or growth failure, may require technologic support in the home after discharge. a. P ulmonary support may be achieved with sup-plemental oxygen, cardiopulmonary monitor-ing, or the use of mechanical ventilation. b. W eaning from ventilatory support is dictated by the infant demonstrating normal oxygen satu-ration, resolution of apnea or bradycardia, and showing appropriate growth. c. U se of in-home technology requires vigilant attention to safety and hygiene, consistent edu-cation, and support of caretakers.

b. A posttraumatic stress disorder has been report-ed in parents of infants in the NICU, caused by ongoing stress of the hospitalization and uncertainty of neonatal outcome that may have a negative impact on the quality of interactions with the infant as well as between the parents (Hynan, Mounts, & Vanderbilt, 2013; Shaw et al., 2009). It is especially important to identify stress and depression in fathers whose degree of dysfunction may be overlooked because of a pri-mary focus on the mother. 2. I nfant with anticipated early death T o enhance the quality of remaining life, infants with terminal disorders may be discharged to the home for hospice care. Discharge planning and follow-up care attend to family needs and concerns and occur with the involvement of home nursing. Necessary elements include creating a plan for management of infant pain and discomfort, securing arrangements for equipment or supplies, and providing ongoing sup-port to parents, siblings, or extended family members (AAP Committee on Fetus & Newborn, 2008).

Screening or diagnosing Choose a practical, cost-effective approach to screening and diagnosis, while abiding by mandated screening pro-tocols. Post-NICU infants need careful, ongoing assess-ment related to neurobehavioral and growth risks and individualized screening based on clinical findings. B. Treatment Select a treatment plan that optimizes growth and devel-opment, is individualized for the caregiver and child, and maximizes caregiver acceptance. v. Plan A. Screening Elicit a thorough history and perform a thorough physi-cal examination, including growth and developmental assessment at all visits. B. Diagnostic tests If not already performed before discharge, these should include 1. N ewborn screen as required by individual state. 2. H earing screen. 3. V ision screen. 4. D evelopmental assessment, often done by referral to a specified neonatal follow-up clinic facility. Premature and at-risk infants may be seen as frequently as four to five times in the first year of life and are followed to school age. Typical criteria for follow-up includes birthweight, gestational age, acute illness during the NICU hospitalization, and referral request from an outpatient provider. However, there are no standardized guidelines for high-risk follow-up care (AAP Committee on Fetus & Newborn, 2004; Kuppala et al., 2012). C. Management A primary provider should be identified and accept responsibility for orchestrating care.

of well-being. During periodic scheduled visits, a complete his-tory is taken, an examination is performed, and potential health risks are identified. Counseling and guidance are provided in the areas of physical, behavioral, and emotional development. Cultural considerations, such as language barriers, cultural values, folk health practices, recognizing one's own personal values, and working to eliminate health disparities related to race or ethnicity, are important to incorporate into each visit (Duderstadt, 2014). For children with special needs, promot-ing self-empowerment and self-esteem as well as maximizing development and function are also important considerations. II.

Intr oduction and general background The 0-3 years of age pediatric visit encompasses a wide range of physical and developmental growth. Infants go through dramatic physical growth while constantly developing gross and fine motor, language, and social skills that allow them to respond to their environment. As infants reach early childhood, their physical growth slows as they begin an intense explora-tion of their environment (Hockenberry & Wilson, 2010). This developmentally and physically diverse patient population requires additional consideration at each visit. The physical examination of infants and toddlers aged 0-3 years may need a different approach than for other age groups because they do not consistently respond to verbal instruction and developmentally may have stranger anxiety. Infants and toddlers may adjust to an examiner if they first watch the interaction between the examiner and their parent during the patient interview (Duderstadt, 2014). During this time, respecting a toddler's personal space and avoiding eye contact may help the toddler become comfortable before the exami-nation. Instead of a head-to-toe examination, a more system-focused approach may be necessary with some patients. For example, auscultation can be completed first in infants before they become more active as the examination proceeds. Indirect examination can be a useful strategy in this age group. Breathing patterns, skin characteristics, symmetry of movement, and musculoskeletal integrity are examples of assessments that can be performed noninvasively. Infants up to 6 months of age can usually be examined on the examining table, whereas infants older than 6 months and toddlers may feel more comfortable being examined in their parent's lap (Hockenberry, 2013). In addition to assessing the child, it is also important to observe the parent-child interaction (Duderstadt, 2014). These interac-tions can give the provider clues to the parent-child dynamic, which is an important element of an overall assessment. Health maintenance is a mutual goal for the patient and health provider and is aimed at potentiating the patient's state Ann Birenbaum Baker0 to 3 Ye Ars of Age Inter v A l  v I s I t© Eliks/Shutterstock; © donatas1205/Shutterstock 184Chapt Er

Intr oduction and general background Health supervision and well-child visits are opportunities for the healthcare provider to assess a child's growth and devel-opment and to promote wellness in the child and family. In addition, the provider needs to address disease detection and prevention and offer proper anticipatory guidance during the visit (Hagan, Shaw, & Duncan, 2008a). Children between 3 and 6 years of age experience an explosion of language, mastery of physical skills, sense of self and peers, an increase in independence, and endless curiosity, all in preparation for a successful school entry milestone (Hagan, Shaw, & Duncan, 2008b). They cross from early childhood into the beginning stages of middle childhood. The approach to early childhood during the well-child visit is twofold: although most of the history may still be provided by the parent or caretaker, children at this age may now partici-pate in some of the interview and actively engage with the pro-vider. Careful observation of their behavior in the examination room is also useful, including their interaction with the parent or caretaker, the environment, and the provider (Duderstadt, 2014). Healthcare maintenance visits in this age range include comprehensive history, physical examination, screening tests (as appropriate), immunizations, anticipatory guidance, coun-seling at a yearly basis, and follow-up as needed.

Intr oduction and general background Children in middle childhood spend less than half as much time with their parents as they did in early childhood. Although par-ents are still the most important influence in their child's emo-tional and physical development, teachers and peers become increasingly important as the child approaches adolescence. Opportunities for mastery and early identification of learning issues are critical to promoting self-esteem and academic success (Gonida & Cortina, 2014). Screening at well-child visits should include assessing peer interactions and bullying victimization in addition to academic performance and classroom behavior (Espelage & De La Rue, 2011). The influence of media in middle childhood is also increasing, with “screen time” for children ages 6-11 years averaging more than 28 hours a week (Gold, 2009). The timing of puberty varies widely between different racial and ethnic groups and genders and can start as early as 6 years in African American girls (Zuckerman, 2001). Early maturing girls are more likely to have internalizing behavior problems and exhibit more risk-taking behaviors (Zuckerman, 2001). Health maintenance is a mutual goal for the parent or guard-ian and healthcare provider. During periodic well-child visits, a complete history is taken, an examination is performed, and potential health risks are identified. Counseling and guidance are provided to the child and parent in the areas of physical, behavioral, and emotional development. Cultural consider-ations, such as language barriers, cultural values, folk remedies, recognizing child's cultural identity and values, and working to eliminate health inequalities related to race or ethnicity, are important to incorporate into each visit (Duderstadt, 2014).

Helmets should be used with any wheeled devices. Pedestrian safety reviewed; bicycle, scooter, and skateboard safety and pro-tective equipment; and water safety including sun exposure and protection reviewed. Teach your child to think carefully about his or her surroundings, particularly around new animals or people. Review the use of 911 and what to do if a child gets lost or separated. Model safe habits, such as seatbelt use, and instruct your child to wear his or her seatbelt appropriately for age and weight. Prepare and practice for emergency situations in the home, such as fire or natural disaster. Make sure you have a planned reunification point (a school, firehouse, and so forth) in the event of a catastrophe. Have emergency supplies for at least 3 days. Have an emergency “go bag” with essential items if you are forced to leave home quickly. Include in the bag any medical needs, emergency instructions, and contact informa-tion. Instruct all your caregivers regarding the emergency plan and location of the go bag. Computers/tablets/cellphone use or any other device allowing online access should be closely monitored. Computer use should be supervised and parents should review clear limits and enact parental controls on media as indicated. Review recommendations for limiting entertainment screen time to 2 hours daily. Nutrition Tips (U. S. Department of Agriculture, 2010): Make at least half your grains whole: whole-wheat bread, oatmeal, brown rice Vary your veggies: go dark green and orange with your vegetables Focus on fruits: fresh, frozen, canned, or dried, and go easy on the fruit juice Get your calcium-rich foods: low-fat and fat-free milk products several times a day Go lean with protein: eat lean or low-fat meat, chicken, turkey, fish, and dry beans Change your oil: fish, nuts, and liquid oils, such as corn, soybean, canola, and olive oil Avoid: Sweetened-sugared beverages and foods. Encourage water daily. Activity (CDC, 2010): 60 minutes or more EVERY day! Limit “screen time” (includes television, video games, and computer time) to 2 hours a day. Vigorous exercise at least 3 days a week including outdoor activity—running; bicycle riding; jumping rope; swimming; organized sports including soccer, basketball, baseball, tennis, martial arts, or gymnastics. Strengthen muscles by participating in sports or gymnastics or using outdoor recreational equipment at least 3 days a week. Strengthen bones with activities such as jumping rope or running at least 3 days a week. Some examples of bone strengthening activities include such games as hopscotch, hopping, skipping, jumping, jumping rope, and running and such sports as gymnastics, basketball, volleyball, or tennis.

picture of the youth's strengths, risks, and overall physical and psychologic health status (Ford, English, & Sigman, 2004). 2. A lthough the involvement and participation of a caring adult in the provision of adolescent services is desirable, there are situations in which a young person may not feel able to involve their parent or in which parental involvement could impair the youth's ability to seek or receive services. All states give adolescents some rights to both consent to care and maintain privacy related to care for confidential issues (Klein & Hutchison, 2012). Laws vary significantly from state to state as to the services to which youth can independently consent; therefore, it is incumbent on the healthcare provider to be familiar with consent and confidentiality laws for minors in their state. 3. Effe ctive communication with both youth and their caregivers about adolescent consent and confidentiality rights is essential to establishing rapport and eliciting pertinent information. A brief discussion of adolescent consent and confidentiality with youths and parents or caregivers, emphasizing the aspects of developing self-reliance and skills to manage their own health care, helps to set the stage. Assuring the parent or caregiver that youth are always encouraged to communicate with their parents and that their presence and participation is valued reassures them that they are not being “shut out” of their child's care. Additionally, it is important for youths to become more familiar with their own past health history as they transition into becoming the main source of their own health information. Both parents/caregivers and youths should be informed of the conditional nature of adolescent confidentiality rights because of obligations to protect adolescents in the event that they are a danger to themselves or others or have been subjected to any reportable I. Intr oduction and general background A. Developmental considerations Adolescence, generally considered to encompass ages 12-21, is a time of enormous development and change in all domains of a young person's and a family's life. Bridging and overlapping childhood and young adulthood, adolescents experience the physical changes of growth and sexual matu-ration; continued developmental changes in both structure and function of their brains (a process not completed until the mid to late 20s); and cognitive, psychologic, and social changes related to both their physical changes and roles and expectations of the culture and society in which they live. B. Adolescent consent and confidentiality 1. F or the healthcare provider, the care of the adolescent may also be a time of transition, because it is the relationship that develops between the youth and the provider that becomes the key to the efficacy with which the provider can assess what services and interventions may be appropriate (Gilbert, Rickert, & Aalsma, 2014). The provider must develop an alliance with the youth, and addressing issues of confidentiality is the cornerstone of this alliance. Without assurances of confidentiality, the most vulnerable youth in need of attention and intervention, those who engage in behaviors that present a risk to their health, who are depressed or suicidal, and who report poor communication and lack of perceived support from their parent or caregiver, may avoid health care altogether (Lehrer, Pantell, T ebb, & Shafer, 2007). For these reasons, it is recommended that providers seeing adolescents be prepared to spend time in the visit with both the parent or caregiver and adolescent together and with the adolescent alone to get a full Erica Monasterio Th E Adol Esc En T And Young Adul T (12-21 Y EA rs of Ag E ) In TE rv A l v I s IT© Eliks/Shutterstock; © donatas1205/Shutterstock 327Chapt Er
