Who should staff neonatal transport teams?

Abstract:
Neonatal transport is variously staffed by diverse combinations of nurses, doctors and paramedical staff. There is no evidence that neonatal transport undertaken with staff from any particular professional background results in improved outcomes for infants; instead, it appears that beneficial outcomes result from using staff who are specifically trained in transport practice, regardless of their professional background. Core transport competencies that are transferrable should be a routine part of the training of transport team members.
