U.S. News & World Report via Health Day News - Cites a recent study conducted by Wade Harrison, Geisel '16, and David Goodman, MD, PhD, researchers at the Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice, which found that more babies are being treated in neonatal intensive care units at many U.S. hospitals, and the infants are bigger and less premature. "Infants admitted to the units are increasingly likely to be of normal birth weight," says Harrison. "More than half of all admissions are for normal or high-birth weight newborns. This suggests the need for further study since the units were initially developed to care for the most premature infants."
