Measuring practice preference variation for quality improvement in neonatal respiratory care.

Objectives: The authors sought to measure and compare practice preference variation in neonatal respiratory care within and between neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) using the Neonatology Survey of Interdisciplinary Groups in Healthcare Tool (NSIGHT).

Study Design: Eleven NICUs completed the NSIGHT between 2019 and 2021. Net preference was measured by mean response; agreement was ranked by standard distribution of response values.

An Observational Time Study of Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Multidisciplinary Rounds.

Objective: In this observational study, we aimed to describe the rounding structure in a high acuity neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) to identify potential barriers to efficient multidisciplinary rounds.

Study Design: We observed daily medical rounds (January-December 2018) on the resident teaching service in a 46-bed academic level IV NICU. Daily census, duration of rounds, and causes for rounding delays were recorded.

Parent Preferences for Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Physician Attire: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Objective: Physician attire may influence the parent-provider relationship. Previous studies in adult and outpatient pediatrics showed that formal attire with a white coat was preferred. We aimed to describe parent preferences for physician attire in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
