“At present there is no consensus on the optimal method to prepare and administer insulin infusions in the NICU setting. Because of this, we conducted a nationwide survey to assess the variability in the methods used to prepare insulin infusions in neonatal units in Spain. We used the software Google Forms® and disseminated the questionnaire through social media and sending it by email to the members of the Sociedad Española de Neonatología (Spanish Society of Neonatology).
We received a total of 44 responses from 44 Spanish hospitals with a NICU. Of these respondents, 80% were paediatricians and 20% nurses.”
