Article Synopsis
- * Conducted as a retrospective analysis, the research included 877 infants born before 32 weeks of gestation, and demonstrated that higher education levels were associated with earlier tracheostomy placements, while non-Hispanic Black infants had later placements compared to their non-Hispanic White counterparts.
- * The findings highlight the need for further investigation into how education and other factors influence decisions and timing surrounding neonatal tracheostomy procedures, particularly given the
Objective: Identify stakeholders' tracheostomy decision-making information priorities in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).
Study Design: English-speaking caregivers and clinicians who participated in NICU tracheostomy discussions between January 2017 and December 2021 were eligible. They reviewed a pediatric tracheostomy communication guide prior to meeting.

Objective: Preterm infants experience daily stress in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Positive sensory experiences mitigate stress responses, but parental participation can be limited by external pressures. This study aimed to describe the impact of a neonatal cuddler program (NCP) on preterm infants' growth.

Study Design: We conducted a secondary analysis of a retrospective cohort that investigated mental health diagnoses and psychotropic medications pre- and post-injury in children ≤18 years of age treated at a pediatric trauma center from 2005 to 2015 (n = 2208). For this study, we analyzed children with STEPP scores from their injury admission (n = 85).
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare the rates of mental health diagnoses and psychotropic prescriptions pre- and posthospitalization for injury in a managed-Medicaid population. We hypothesized that children have increased rates of mental health diagnoses and psychotropic prescriptions after injury.
Study Design: We investigated children (n = 2208) ≤18 years of age treated at a pediatric trauma center from 2005 to 2015 who were enrolled in a managed-Medicaid program at hospital admission and for at least 1 healthcare visit in the preceding year.
