Summary
Neonatal registry systems enhance neonatal care quality and research integration. This pilot study demonstrates their effectiveness in improving neonatal ward performance and identifying disorders.
Area of Science:
- Neonatology
- Public Health
- Health Informatics
Background:
- Global initiatives aim to enhance neonatal care quality through registry networks.
- Integrating research into clinical practice is a key objective of these systems.
Purpose of the Study:
- To design and pilot a neonatal registry system in Vali-Asr Hospital.
- To evaluate the system's effectiveness in providing an overview of neonatal status.
Main Methods:
- A pilot study was conducted over three years (2013-2016).
- Data were collected from 3360 neonates admitted to level 2 and level 3 neonatal intensive care units (NICUs).
Main Results:
- A total of 3360 neonates were included in the registry.
- The neonatal mortality rate was 5.5% (184 neonates).
- Mean gestational age was 35.92 ± 3.352 weeks, and mean birth weight was 2609.23 ± 829.751 g.
Conclusions:
- The neonatal registry system provides valuable insights into neonatal ward performance.
- It aids in identifying novel aspects of neonatal disorders.
- Neonatal registries are essential tools for improving the quality of neonatal care.

01:47Primary Active Transport
200.7K
In contrast to passive transport, active transport involves a substance being moved through membranes in a direction against its concentration or electrochemical gradient. There are two types of active transport: primary active transport and secondary active transport. Primary active transport utilizes chemical energy from ATP to drive protein pumps that are embedded in the cell membrane. With energy from ATP, the pumps transport ions against their electrochemical gradients—a direction...

60.7K
Vascular plants, which account for over 90% of the Earth’s vegetation, all undergo primary growth—which lengthens roots and shoots. Many land plants, notably woody plants, also undergo secondary growth—which thickens roots and shoots.

01:06Primary Production
25.5K
The total amount of energy acquired by primary producers in an ecosystem is called gross primary production (GPP). However, of this energy, producers use some for metabolic processes, and some is lost as heat, decreasing the amount of energy available to the next trophic level. The remaining usable amount of energy is called the net primary productivity (NPP). In terrestrial ecosystems, NPP is driven by climate, while light penetration and nutrient availability drive NPP in aquatic ecosystems.

Primary distribution systems deliver electrical power from substations to consumers through various voltage classes, with 15-kV class voltages being predominant among U.S. utilities. Older 2.5- and 5-kV classes are being replaced by 15-kV primaries, while higher 25- to 34.5-kV classes are used in high-density urban areas and rural regions with long feeders. Three-phase, four-wire multigrounded systems are widely employed for balanced power delivery, using the neutral wire as a grounding point.

01:17Nomenclature of Primary Amines
4.6K
Primary, secondary, and tertiary amines are compounds consisting of one, two, and three alkyl groups connected to the amino group (–NH2), respectively. As depicted in Figure 1, the common name of the primary amines is obtained by adding the suffix -amine to the alkyl substituent attached to the amino group as the corresponding alkylamine.
