LOVERA MONTILLA, Luis Alexander et al. Interdisciplinary in Neonatal Care in Latin America: Experience of a Scientific Society. Rev Cubana Pediatr [online]. 2021, vol.93, n.4  Epub Mar 01, 2022. ISSN 1561-3119.

Interdisciplinary teamwork is essential, not only in the care of newborns and their families but also in the health work team itself, in order to offer comprehensive, humane and non-fragmented care and assistance. It is imperative to explore how such care has been carried out in the Latin American region. This article deals with four aspects: first, a contextualization on interdisciplinarity; second, the experience in the formation of an interdisciplinary group within a scientific society; third, the results of a survey on interdisciplinarity in neonatal care in Latin America and, finally, some recommendations to promote interdisciplinarity in neonatal intensive care units in Latin America.

Keywords : interdisciplinary; neonatal intensive care unit; newborn; Latin America.
