The Neonatal Committee of the Texas Collaborative for Healthy Mothers and Babies (TCHMB) has completed two data collection periods for the Newborn Admission Temperature (NAT) Project. Of the 157 hospitals enrolled, 110 (70%) have submitted data for the most recent (second) data collection period. Overall, data quality has improved since the first data collection period, with more hospitals submitting data stratified by race/ethnicity. The NAT team is currently working on a report that will be published to the website in the coming month.
For hospitals needing additional support, we will provide weekly “NAT Office Hours” on Wednesdays from 12-2pm. Please feel free to drop in any time during these sessions for individual support. If you need the link for the meeting or if this time does not work for you, please reach out to us at nat@utsystem.edu.
