About this study
The goal of the Tiny Baby Collaborative Multicenter Inventory of Neonatal-Perinatal Interventions (MINI) minimum dataset is to serve as a registry detailing the outcomes and practices for all deliveries and infants admitted to intensive care at 22-23 weeks' gestation at participating hospitals.
Read the detailed description
The minimum dataset collects observational baseline data on both mothers and infants, and the therapies used and outcomes of the infants. The data collected include information on:
- Demographics of mother and infant
- Mother's health, labor and delivery
- Infant's health, medical interventions, and clinical outcomes
These data are used to: provide participating hospitals with reporting for use in quality improvement; evaluate associations between baseline characteristics, treatments, and outcomes; and track trends in disease and therapy.

- Medical subject headings
- Obstetric Labor, Premature, Premature Birth
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
