Research Surveys
Admission Criteria for Late Preterm Infants
This survey is being conducted by NANN Member Barbara Snapp.
Late preterm infants have been classified as a group of infants who give the initial impression of being healthy and mature but who may suffer from significant morbidities. Although routinely studied as a single entity, within these 3 weeks of gestational age, a varying hospital course can be expected. You can anonymously share your institution's admission criteria for late preterm infants in this survey, which should take less than 3 minutes to complete.
A National Survey of Neonatal Nurses' Knowledge, Beliefs, and Practices of Antibiotic Stewardship
This survey is being conducted by NANN Member Maryam Hamidi.
Antibiotic use in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) has become commonplace and has had a significant impact on neonatal health outcomes. This national survey will examine neonatal nurse knowledge.
