A regionalization program, initiated in 1973 at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, has included community hospital site visits, formal nursing courses, and neonatal transport. The neonatal transport program was designed not only to give initial medical care to the sick newborn, but also to develop the educational aspects of the regionalization program. Analysis of data from the first two years (614 transports) revealed significant educational interactions occurring during transport. Improved perinatal care the second year was reflected in decreased regional neonatal mortality and improved neonatal management.
1973年在范德堡大学医学中心启动的一项区域化项目，包括对社区医院的实地考察、正规护理课程以及新生儿转运。新生儿转运项目不仅旨在为患病新生儿提供初步医疗护理，还旨在发展区域化项目的教育层面。对前两年（614次转运）数据的分析显示，转运期间发生了显著的教育互动。第二年围产期护理的改善体现在区域新生儿死亡率降低和新生儿管理得到改善。
