Abstract

Background: Neonatal registry network systems are conducted worldwide in order to improve the quality of neonatal care and also to integrate research into daily practice.

Methods: We designed a neonatal registry system and conducted a pilot study in Vali-Asr Hospital to explore its effectiveness to develop an overview of our neonatal status. This study is a report of three years of data registry (2013–2016) in above mentioned system.

Results: Data were collected from 3360 neonates admitted to level 2 of neonatal ward, and NICU (level 3) of the Vali-Asr Hospital. Among them, 184 (5.5%) neonates didn’t survive. The mean ± SD of gestational age (GA) was 35.92 ± 3.352 weeks and the mean ± SD of the birth weight was 2609.23 ± 829.751 g.

Conclusion: This pilot study indicated that the neonatal registry system can help us to have a better overview of the performance of neonatal wards, and also to find new aspects of neonatal disorders. In addition, this study showed that neonatal registry is an essential tool to improve neonatal care.
