I think you may want to double check that. We have a seperate "paper" for managing EBM for pre-term babies. Some of the "clean" procedures and preparations for healthy term babies, - may be sterile procedures for this high risk neonates. Just double check to be sure. If it is, maybe you can post it so we can all see it. I dont have a scanner, but if Kathy needs the protocol we have for our sister hospital (we are a low risk center) I can fax it to her. Kathy you can e-mail me privately if needed and I can get your fax number. thanks, robin *********************************************** Archives: http://community.lsoft.com/archives/LACTNET.html To reach list owners: [log in to unmask] Mail all list management commands to: [log in to unmask] COMMANDS: 1.
