What this trial studies

The Delivery Room Intervention and Evaluation Network (DRIVE) aims to collect and analyze data on newborns receiving resuscitation at birth across various hospitals in the United States. This observational study focuses on essential neonatal resuscitation practices, including Continuous Positive Airway Pressure and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, to identify best practices and improve outcomes. By gathering standardized data from a diverse population, the DRIVE Network seeks to benchmark performance among participating centers and enhance the educational framework of the Neonatal Resuscitation Program. The initiative addresses existing disparities in infant mortality and aims to improve the quality of care at birth.
