The role of the neonatal intensive care nurse in the delivery room
Abstract
The experienced Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) nurse is a crucial member of the delivery room resuscitation team. In a survey of tertiary centers, the neonatal nurse was the most consistent member of the team in attendance at high risk deliveries. This nursing role, including rationale, preparation for, and future potential, is explored in this article.
