Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) Practices: Innovations and Outcomes in Preterm Infant Care

Abstract

The care of preterm infants in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) has undergone

significant transformations due to technological advancements, evidence-based practices, and

multidisciplinary collaboration. This paper explores the innovations in NICU practices, such

as non-invasive ventilation, neonatal pain management, and family-centered care, and their

impact on the outcomes of preterm infants. Moreover, it examines the evolution of NICU

practices and their correlation with the improvement of survival rates and long-term health

outcomes for preterm infants. The paper highlights the need for continued research to refine

NICU interventions and ensure the optimal care of preterm infants in a rapidly evolving

medical landscape.
