This continuation application demonstrates the presence of all the requirements for our Center to remain a key Network member. We have been a productive member of all Network functions including study design, patient recruitment, manuscript preparation, committee membership and leadership. We have demonstrated the ability to collaborate in a collegial manner with other Network centers. We have also been productive beyond the confines of the Network in terms of collaborative studies, bench and clinical research as well as publications. There are 15 Board certified academic neonatologists who ensure protected time for Network activities. Each year we admit more than 1000 babies to the NICU, including approximately 200 with birth weights < 1.5 kg. The adjacent obstetric service delivers almost 5000 babies each year, many high risk, and is supported by four maternal-fetal specialists with interest in clinical research and commitment to the Network concept. Our subspeciality designated (former level III) perinatal center includes modern facilities for labor and delivery, neonatal intensive care and convalescent care. There is a full complement of pediatric medical and surgical subspecialities together with strongly nationally recognized programs in respiratory therapy, nursing, pharmacy, genetics, nutrition, radiology and pediatric pathology. These is a biochemistry, hematology, immunology and microbiology laboratory together with a full service blood bank. The Radiology Department is equipped with standard radiography and the latest generation of ultrasound, CT scanning, MR and PET scanners. Our follow-up program has been nationally acclaimed and boasts in excess of 90% follow-up rate for study patients. The computerized neonatal/perinatal and follow-up data systems have supported a number of studies. We have transmitted our data to the Data Center in a timely and accurate manner. Our experienced nurse coordinator and clinical research nurse team ensure high enrollment rates and compliance with protocols. There is a firm divisional, departmental and institutional commitment to participate in a collaborative manner with other centers. CWRU is proud of its record within the Network and strongly desires to continue to participate. We accept the budgetary process and have submitted an exciting concept protocol for consideration by the Network. In summary, we comfortably satisfy all the criteria for Network participation. We have the personnel, the facilities, the patient base, the data bases and, above all, the experience and commitment. We have firm institutional backing, have demonstrated remarkable productivity and the ability to collaborate, hence fulfill all Network selection criteria.

该延续应用程序证明了我们中心保持关键网络成员的所有要求。我们一直是所有网络功能的富有成效成员，包括研究设计，患者招聘，手稿准备，委员会成员和领导力。我们已经证明了与其他网络中心以合作方式合作的能力。就协作研究，替补和临床研究以及出版物而言，我们也超越了网络范围的生产力。有15名获得董事会认证的学术新生学家，他们确保受保护的网络活动时间。每年，我们都会承认1000多个婴儿，包括大约200个出生体重<1.5公斤的婴儿。邻近的产科服务每年提供近5000名婴儿，许多高风险，并得到了四位对临床研究和对网络概念承诺的感兴趣的母亲养育专家的支持。我们指定（以前的III级）围产期中心包括劳动和分娩，新生儿重症监护和康复护理的现代设施。小儿医学和外科手术亚科以及在呼吸疗法，护理，药房，遗传学，营养，放射学和儿科病理学方面的全国认可的计划都充分补充了全国认可的计划。这是一种生物化学，血液学，免疫学和微生物学实验室以及全服务血库。放射科配备了标准射线照相和最新一代超声，CT扫描，MR和PET扫描仪。我们的后续计划在全国范围内广受好评，研究患者的随访率超过90％。计算机化的新生儿/围产期和随访数据系统支持了许多研究。我们已经及时，准确地将数据传输到数据中心。我们经验丰富的护士协调员和临床研究护士团队确保高入学率和遵守协议。有一个坚定的部门，部门和机构承诺，与其他中心合作。 CWRU为其在网络中的记录感到自豪，并强烈希望继续参与。我们接受预算过程，并提交了一个令人兴奋的概念协议，以供网络考虑。总而言之，我们舒适地满足了网络参与的所有标准。我们拥有人员，设施，患者基础，数据基础，最重要的是经验和承诺。我们具有牢固的机构支持，表现出了显着的生产力和合作的能力，因此符合所有网络选择标准。
