Data to Benchmark Improvement

VON serves as a neutral, independent party in analyzing and providing benchmarking data for individual centers and groups that can be used to identify local opportunities for improvement of neonatal care.

Four databases collect information on very low birth weight infants, all patients cared for in a NICU, follow-up for extremely low birth weight infants, and infants cared for in resource-limited settings around the world.
