Summary
This study describes the development of a statechart model representing the Immediate Neonatal Adaptation Guideline from the National University of Colombia, which focuses on physiologically-based cord clamping. Clinicians and engineers built the model through progressive refinement, producing 20 states, 38 events and 4 superstates that map patient states, criteria and clinical indicators at birth. An interdisciplinary panel evaluated the model for educational and training use. Feedback was generally positive regarding versatility, usability, scalability and moderate visual complexity.
