Clinical Record Keeping: Paediatrics
There is a standard structure for Paediatric Records, and for filing of non-current records.
The Paediatric Patient Record is kept in the yellow “Outpatient Folder”. However, this is NOT an
outpatient record. This is the patient clinical record that follows the patient throughout the
institution, whenever and where ever the patient is seen.
All Paediatric Patient Records are exactly the same (inside the yellow “outpatient” folder)

The OPD clerks or nursing staff should assemble the “package” and bind them in the yellow folders.
Continuation pages and referral letters must be bound chronologically. Special investigation reports
(CT Scan, echo etc.) can be bound after the HIV sheet, or chronologically. The orderliness of the
Paediatric Patient Record is the responsibility of the last doctor to make an entry.
All Paediatric Inpatient Records are exactly the same (inside ward-based “Ring Binders”)
All charts are in chronological order

Keep in a safe place and update when appropriate
Non-current pages are removed after one-two days
Results must be entered on results page, signed by attending doctor and filed away from the active record
Each page should have patient’s name and inpatient number
Notes should be problem orientated and focussed
If any change is made to the management of the patient, this change and the reason for the change must
be documented
When “filing” non-current pages, use a paper binder and keep pages in chronological order
When “filing” non-current pages, bind like with like
All the different kinds of pages (progress, prescription, intake/output, special observations etc.) used in the
department are standardised
ALWAYS RECORD THE CHILD’S DATE OF BIRTH, IN ALL DESIGNATED PLACES
“Gold Standard” folders should be developed for each unit, and used to refer to for structuring
folders and to compare with during chart review meetings.

Clinical Record Keeping in the Nursery
It is a good idea to standardise the structure for Neonatal Inpatient Folders, and for filing of non-current records.
An example, which REALLY works, follows.
All charts must be exactly the same (inside Ring Binders)
Section (each section separated by a file divider)
Healthworker responsible
1)
Patient’s clinical notes
Doctor
2)
Doctor’s obs (results page, scoring sheets etc)
Doctor
3)
Nursing obs (“routine”, ventilator, phototherapy, etc)
Nurse
4)
Nursing Process
Nurse
5)
Intake/Output/Feeds
Nurse
6)
Prescription
Doctor and Nurse to check all sheets every
day
7)
Road to Health Chart
Doctor and Nurse to fill in relevant sections
when appropriate
8)
Miscellaneous
“Clearing House” for anything awaiting
filing (empty daily)
All charts are in chronological order
Section
Order
Baby’s clinical notes
Front to Back
Doctor’s obs (results page, scoring sheets etc)
Front to Back
Nursing obs (“routine”, ventilator, phototherapy, etc)
Back to Front
Nursing Process
Back to Front
Intake/Output/Feeds
Back to Front
Prescription
Back to Front
Important instructions
ƒ
Non-current pages are removed after one - two days
This applies to all sections except patient’s clinical notes
Results must be entered on results page, signed by attending doctor and filed
Each page should have patient’s name and hospital number
Notes should be problem orientated and focussed
If any change is made to the management of the patient, this change and the reason for the change must be
documented
When “filing” non-current pages, use a paper binder and keep the pages in chronological order
When “filing” non-current pages, bind like with like
All the different kinds of pages (progress, prescription, intake/output, special observations etc.) used in your
unit/department should be standardised

Each Ward should have a “Gold Standard” folder to refer to for structuring folders, and to compare with during chart review meetings.

Using the Newborn Care Record
Using the Infant Care Record, and following these instructions for its use will immediately enable the improvement
of the quality of care babies receive, and will make your looking after them more efficient
ALWAYS PRINT YOUR NAME CLEARLY
Newborn Care Record: 1st page (ALL live births)
1. Birth attendant (midwife and/or doctor) to fill in all maternal and resuscitation details, marking where necessary the
appropriate response boxes. Where pregnancy, labour and/or delivery problems are noted, give detail on Page 3 in
the space provided
2. The apgar scores should be transposed from the table on the back page
3. Birth attendant’s name MUST appear in the bottom right corner
4. When WR is positive, write in the titre in the space provided
5. When filling in the weight scale, start in the space provided between 36 and 37 degrees. Use weight gradations of
50 grams
6. The front page becomes the daily snapshot of the clinical course
7. When babies stay longer than 14 days, use the continuation weight/temperature chart, but start the weight scale in
the space provided between 34 and 35 degrees, and continue using weight gradations of 50 grams
8. The “Problem List” is to be filled in, as problems are identified (don’t use this space for clinical notes, or X-ray
registers e.t.c.). Start getting into the habit of entering the ICD 10 codes as well
2nd page (ALL live births)
1. Birth attendant to fill in information on previous pregnancies and on the placenta, and to complete the relevant
identification section
2. When urine or meconium are passed or when abnormalities are noted, these should be documented on the
“Examination check list” even if they are noted at a time prior to the formal First Examination
3. First examination table to be completed by the person performing the first examination. This should be done within
24 hours of delivery. Remember to print your name and sign
3rd page (only if problems - no matter how trivial - are encountered)
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Insert the referral letter here if there is one
Details of abnormalities during pregnancy, labour and or/delivery to be documented in the space provided
Clinical “First Contact” notes start below this. Doctors AND nurses can use the same pages for clinical notes
List the significant problems on the front page as well
Clinical notes continue on page 5 (using a ‘ring-binder’)
4th page
1. Use the “Apgar Scoring Chart” to score all babies. Transpose the totals to the space provided on page 1.
Remember to print your name and sign
2. A 10 minute apgar need only be done if the baby needs ongoing resuscitation
3. On the “Discharge Check and Plan”, the “Unresolved Problems” list should only be completed at discharge
Continuation Pages
1. Number continuation pages starting from 5
2. Write patient registration details on each page, or use a sticker
Referring
When referring or transferring baby to another facility, the Newborn Care Record or a photocopy thereof
should travel with the baby (this makes writing a long referral letter unnecessary). Any additional
information in a referral letter should be in duplicate, the original with the patient, and the copy in the
folder as a clinical record kept in chronological order with the rest of the clinical notes.

PHOTOTHERAPY
WESTERN CAPE 2006 CONSENSUS GUIDELINES
In presence of risk factors use one line lower (the gestation below) until <1000g.
If gestational age is accurate, rather use gestational age (weeks) instead of body weight
Infants > 12 hours old with TSB level below threshold, repeat TSB level as follows:
1- 20μmol/L below line:repeat TSB in 6hrs or start phototherapy and rept TSB in 12- 24hrs,
21 - 50 μmol/L below line: repeat TSB in 12 – 24hrs,
>50 μmol/L below line: rept TSB until it is falling and/or until jaundice is clinically resolving
Infants under phototherapy :
Check the TSB 12 – 24 hly but if TSB >30 μmol/L above the line , check TSB 4 – 6hly.
STOP phototherapy :
If TSB > 50 μmol/L below the line. Recheck TSB in 12 – 24hr.

Neonatal Jaundice Monitoring Chart: Exchange Transfusion
EXCHANGE TRANSFUSION
WESTERN CAPE 2006 CONSENSUS GUIDELINES
In presence of sepsis, haemolysis, acidosis, or asphyxia,
use one line lower (gestation below) until <1000g
If gestational age is accurate, rather use gestational age (weeks) than body weight
Micro mol / L TSB (total serum bilirubin)
Note: 1. Infants who present with TSB above threshold should have Exchange done if the
TSB is not expected to be below the threshold after 6 hrs of intensive phototherapy.
2. Immediate Exchange is recommended if signs of bilirubin encephalopathy and
usually also if TSB is >85 μmol/L above threshold at presentation
3. Exchange if TSB continues to rise >17 μmol/L/hour with intensive phototherapy
