FOLLOW UP: AAP NCE 2012 -- SOTM Quality Metrics Summit -- Modified Delphi Survey Results
We had an incredibly successful Section Program and Course this year. Thank you to all who participated. After discussion and completion of Round 2 voting with over 100 participants from all over the US (and several from other countries as well), We are happy to present to you the final list of consensus metrics. These 12 metrics were voted "very important," must-have-metrics for Neonatal/Pediatric Transport by AT LEAST 70% of the participants.
The definitions that accompany each are DRAFTS ONLY and will be modified in response to feedback we receive. Keep checking back to see progress on this front. We are also work-ing on a manuscript detailing the entire Quality Metrics Summit.

from one medical facility to another, your new-
born or child may require the care of a pediatric/
neonatal critical care transport team.
