The National Association of Neonatal Nurses (NANN), in collaboration with Vermont Oxford Network (VON), is excited to bring you the Case of the Year! This interactive presentation will explore a complex and unique clinical case. The case will challenge the attendees' critical thinking skills and encourage attendees to think outside the box. The diagnosis will be revealed at the end of the presentation, and the attendees will receive education on the diagnosis. Attendees will be better prepared to recognize this time sensitive diagnosis and improve their outcomes in their unit.
Vermont Oxford Network is a nonprofit voluntary collaboration of health care professionals working together as an interdisciplinary community to change the landscape of neonatal care. Their mission is to improve the quality, safety, and value of care for newborn infants and their families through a coordinate program of data-driven quality improvement, education and research.
