Clinical Practice Guidelines

Methodologies for developing clinical guidelines are becoming more widely established. The process is increasingly comprehensive, which is appropriate in a health care environment that values evidence-based practice. The clinical practice guidelines on this website have been established through the Reproductive Care Program of Nova Scotia Action Group.

Guidelines:

• Timing of Specimen Collection for Newborn Screening
• Antenatal Laboratory Screening & Testing
• Labour and Birth in the Emergency Room
• Labour Analgesia
• Fentanyl for Pain Relief in Labour
• Intrapartum Chemoprophylaxis for GBS
• Investigating an Intrauterine Death
• RCP Endorsement of National Back to Sleep Guideline
• Routine Hyperbilirubinemia Screening
