Without taking this uncertainty into account, we cannot conclude that a hospital with a measure rate that is higher or lower than the group rate is truly performing at a worse or better rate than the group. Statisticians use confidence intervals to account for this uncertainty.

  • Introduction
    15 Introduction The Neonatal (newborn) Intensive Care Unit (NICU) of the Floating Hospital for Children is a 40-bed unit designed to provide highly specialized and technically advanced care to ill, premature, or high-risk babies. Skilled nurses, physicians, nurse practitioners and respiratory therapists staff the unit. This team of health care providers function together to provide the finest and most comprehensive care possible for your newborn. Some of the babies admitted to the NICU are born here at Tufts Medical Center, and some are born in community hospitals and then transported to us by members of our Neonatal Transport Team. Babies are admitted to the NICU for many reasons. Whatever the reason for admission, a wide range of pediatric subspecialty services is readily available for your newborn if necessary. Some of our specialty services include newborn medicine, pediatric cardiology, pediatric surgery, pediatric neurology, pediatric otolaryngology, pediatric urology and many others, all available 24-hours/day. Soon after admission, your baby will be assigned a primary nurse and will be assigned to a team of physicians on the newborn medicine service. Tufts Medical Center is the principal teaching hospital for Tufts University School of Medicine; there are many doctors at various levels of specialty training who will be involved with your baby’s care. At all times, the attending physician is ultimately responsible for the medical care your baby receives. If you have already chosen a pediatrician, please give his or her name to your baby’s nurse. Once identified, the pediatrician will receive routine updates, about once a week, while your baby is in the NICU.
