DATA COLLECTION

Each hospital mounts a cover system according to their realities since it is impossible to dictate a single standard, being the Coordination available to members to provide advice and to answer specific questions. ECLAMC tasks can be organized into Coverage and Registration. Coverage or malformed detection depends on the quality of the examination of all births, therefore depending upon the collaboration of all the medical staff of the hospital and especially pediatrician neonatologists. The Registry should be done by one or a few persons, one of whom shall be the contact with the Coordination, who should be familiar with the rules given in the Operational Manual.
