Credé procedure is a medical procedure performed on newborns, associated with protection from the etiologic agent of gonorrhea. The procedure involves the addition of 1% silver nitrate solution into the conjunctival sac; the recommendation is that it be done within one hour of birth. The procedure is effective in preventing gonococcal conjunctivitis.
