In utero transfer
- Most in-utero transfers occur safely and efficiently following direct communication between the referring and receiving hospital
- Delays in bed finding should not delay the transfer
- It is important that the decision to transfer does not expose the mother or baby to significant risk
- When dilemmas in decision-making arise, input may be required from multiple groups: eg Obstetricians, transport personnel (medical and ambulance) and others. This is best achieved through a conference call facility
- NETS can organize and coordinate access to multi disciplinary conference calls
- NETS should be contacted if exhaustive attempts to find a bed are unsuccessful
