Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and outcome of neonates transferred by different ways. Method A total of 1 027 neonates transferred to neonatal intensive care unit(NICU)of our hospital from July 2009 to July 2010 were analyzed prospectively. They were divided into three groups: twoway transport(TWT),hospital-aided one-way transport(HAT)and self-help one-way transport(SHT).The conditions at admission and discharge and pre-hospital care of the neonates were compared between the groups. The data were statistically analyzed with square tests, variance analysis and Mann Whitney U test. Results The median ages of TWT,HAT, and SHT groups at admission were 0.46 d,0.33 d and 5 d respectively. The TWT and HAT neonates had smaller gestational age and birth weight than SHT ones, had more severe conditions and cost more,and the differences were significant(P<0.05).Significant differences existed in all emergency treatment except in warming measures(x2=96.855~103.863,P<0.05).The cure percentage at discharge was the highest in SHT group,and differences in treatment results of three groups were significant(Z=-1.987 to-5.347,P<0.05).Conclusions The TWT and HAT neonates have smaller gestational age,ages at admission and birth weight than SHT ones,have more severe conditions,cost more and lower cure percentage at discharge than SHT ones.
