Commentary: Neonatal cardiac care units: The next step in specialization and regionalization

[摘要] The congenital heart center program from Columbia University in New York has reported the outcomes of a novel dedicated neonatal cardiac care unit.2 This is one of the first units of its kind in the United States. The review covers a 10-year period from 2006 through 2017. During that time, the center had a distinct cardiac neonatal intensive care unit (ICU), which was a 17-bed subunit physically and functionally distinct in team structure and practices. This unit was separate from the pediatric cardiac ICU and the general neonatal ICU.
