Economic Impact of Changes in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Ventilation Strategies with the Advent of New Noninvasive Ventilation Techniques: A Review and Proposed Assessment Framew... by Jan B. Pietzsch, Abigail M. Garner, Michael McQueen

“…**Methods:** Model parameters were derived from a recent study comparing respiratory modality utilization between five US-based neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) adopting a HFT strategy and a larger pool of NICUs in the Vermont-Oxford Network (VON), and from single center experience. We computed the total cost difference between the respiratory support strategies based on published cost data. …”
