An essential guide for evaluating outcomes and improving practice in the neonatal intensive care unit - an aspect of neonatal intensive care that is not covered in standard texts. Written by a neonatologist with experience in outcomes research, the book engages Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) workers with vitally important questions about their work: What is a good NICU? Could you achieve better results? How completely can you characterize the results of your NICU?
