Abstract

Neonatal intensive care units (NICU) provide essential medical care to neonates; however, they are associated with hospital-acquired infections, less maternal-newborn bonding, and high costs. Implementing strategies to lower NICU admission rates and shorten NICU length of stay (LOS) is essential. This study uses causal-inference methods to evaluate the impact of care managers using new technology to identify and risk stratify pregnancies on NICU admissions and NICU LOS.
