McGowan Institute of Regenrative Medicine. A program of the University of Pittsburgh and UPMC. Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh and the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center are working to quickly identify and treat shock, a problem that affects an estimated 1 million emergency room patients every year. Researchers are working on a unique diagnostic medical device currently in clinical trials.

NICHD Center for Developmental Biology & Perinatal Medicine (CDBPM). The CDBPM supports scientists who are advancing fundamental and clinical knowledge about maternal health and problems of child development, including preterm labor and birth, intellectual and developmental disabilities, congenital and genetic disorders, fetal growth restriction, and other conditions. The Center and its programs aim to maximize human development, prevent diseases and disorders, and improve diagnoses, therapy, and clinical care.

Running in parallel with clinical care in the Phelps Center for Cerebral Palsy and Neurodevelopmental Medicine are several Phelps Center research projects designed to improve classification and treatment for children with cerebral palsy. Using advanced neuroimaging techniques in the Kennedy Krieger Institute Kirby Research Center for Functional Brain Imaging researchers have identified specific white matter pathways that carry messages from one part of the brain to another.

Only medical center in the state that's 100% focused on caring for children, from babies to teens. Teaching hospital and home of the University of Connecticut School of Medicine Department of Pediatrics Connecticut Children's Medical Center is the largest pediatric primary care service for children between Boston and New York. Pediatricians provide primary care services such as well-child checkups and immunizations, and care for minor illnesses. Emergency room staffed serves approximately 30,000 patients annually. Surgical unit nearly 6,000 surgeries performed annually. Intensive care unit serves children with traumatic injuries, life-threatening illness and children recovering from major surgery. We're a neonatal intensive care unit caring for about 500 critically ill or premature newborn babies a year; some children who weigh one pound at birth.

NICHD Neonatal Research Network and Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), part of the National Institutes of Health, initiated the Neonatal Research Network to conduct multi-center clinical trials and observational studies in neonatal medicine.

NICHD program focuses on developing research that links PCCR medicine and science to the epidemiology, prevention, and treatment of childhood disabilities. The effort sponsors competitive research on all aspects of PCCR-including critical analyses of outcomes for children who are survivors of trauma, congenital anomalies, neonatal asphyxia, infectious processes, septic shock, and many other less common, but still devastating hildhood processes. The PCCR program also provides support for the Pediatric Critical Care Scientist Development Program (PCCSDP) , a national faculty training and career development program that develops successful pediatric critical care physician scientists conducting research to enhance the scientific understanding, clinical management, and rehabilitation of pediatric critical illness.

"For over 60 years the most appropriate oxygen level for preterm babies remains unknown. To answer this, we will combine data from over 5300 babies to be sure the expected benefits of lower oxygen for babies' eyes and lungs does not come at the expense of increasing death or major disability in these children. Planning to do this before the results of any of the trials are known is called a prospective meta-analysis. This is the first time this technique has been used in neonatal medicine.
