Every neonatologist has built a protocol or written a guideline, and most have done it completely alone. In this episode, Ben sits down with Dr. Christina Muffy Sollinger (UC Davis) and Dr. Sarvin Ghavam (CHOP), the co-founders of NeoGuide, a national collaborative dedicated to connecting clinicians around the shared work of clinical guidelines and practice pathways. Born from a single email that broke a listserv and generated over 120 responses overnight, NeoGuide has grown into a structured community offering a seminar series on topics like transfusion medicine and HIE management, and a curriculum series focused on implementation science. Muffy and Sarvin discuss how to build consensus without promoting cookie-cutter medicine, the moral distress of clinical uncertainty, and their vision for a living repository of institutional pathways. Whether you are at a level four academic center or a small rural NICU, you shouldn’t have to start from scratch.
