Abstract: Neonatal intensive care is a highly complex area of healthcare requiring coordinated care between multiple healthcare professionals; as a result, information flow within the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) can be very complex and impact quality of care. This paper presents initial research findings based on the use of the patient journey modelling technique known as PaJMa to audit the current state of health informatics within NICUs in Canada. In this paper, a case study including three Ontario NICUs is utilised and their 'Investigations' processes are modelled using PaJMa.
