Abstract
As complex, sophisticated therapies become more available, ill infants may be transported over greater distances. Transport of critically ill infants requires a thorough understanding of common problems unique to the neonate. Successful outcome begins with adequate pre-transport stabilization and depends on a well-organized transport program with specially trained personnel. Experience and understanding of the equipment and vehicles available are critical for safe, effective transport.
