Hi Hannah, For the ectopic pregnancy scenario, if the NEWS total is 0, will you write 12HR for monitoring frequency and N for escalation as per NEWS policy for a total score of 0, or will you write 1HR for monitoring frequency and Y for escalation regardless of the total NEWS score of 0 because ectopic pregnancy is a serious case with risk of bleeding?
Hi this is an important point and often an area of fail you must always follow the NEWS2 policy and document it as per the policy so if your NEWS is 0 you must write 12 hrs and no escalation, however if you have a concern for example pain or bleeding then just verbalise that you would come back and reassess this in 30mins or 1 hr in additional to your 12hr NEWS2 monitoring you can also verbalise that you will discuss with the dr/medical team, but do not write 30min or 1 hr on the NEWS2 this is a fail as you have to demonstrate being able to correctly follow the NEWS2 policy
@HannahAmes24 Hi Hannah, Thanks for your quick response! So, in this case, for the escalation part as well, we should write N as per NEWS policy but verbalize that I will escalate to the surgical team because of your pain, and since your condition is serious and may become an emergency at anytime, is that right?
She’s very good
Thank you
Perfectly explained 🎉
@@faithmuroki2367 thank you 😊
