Interdisciplinary teams from 42 institutions in North America are working together to improve the quality and safety of medical care for newborn infants and their families by applying the concepts of family-integrated care, teams and teamwork, the sequence to achieve change, increased value, and standardization into their collaborative improvement work, addressing: Optimizing Outcomes of the Micro-Premature Infant; Optimizing Nutrition and Reducing Necrotizing Enterocolitis; and Multi-system: Minimizing Brain Injury and Minimizing Lung Injury. This project commenced in January 2021 and continued through December 2022.iNICQ webinar series: iNICQ 2022 - The Ins & Outs of Neonatal Care: Improving Critical Transitions for Every Newborn - Our Internet-based Newborn Improvement Collaborative for Quality (iNICQ) is a multi-center collaborative dedicated to improving neonatal transitions in all phases of care - from birth to home. A critical transition is any change of the care site or care team, or any significant change to an infant's status or plan of care. These many important transitions occur within a hospital or health system and between several hospitals and communities, and all levels of hospitals, health systems, or regional groups benefit from improving these vulnerable times of care. 77 multi-disciplinary teams used VON's structured curriculum and expert faculty to improve critical transitions. Additionally, teams had access to participate in the Experience-Based Co-Design (EBCD) curriculum with additional faculty, including those from the Point of Care Foundation.Annual Quality Congress- The 2022 Vermont Oxford Network Annual Quality Congress was held in person in Chicago, IL between Sept 8-11, 2022. The Vermont Oxford Network Annual Quality Congress gathered our worldwide community dedicated to improving the quality, safety, and value of care for newborn infants and families. Participants included newborn care providers of all disciplines and families who shared their experiences as equal members of the improvement team. The multi-day event featured faculty at the leading edge of technology, world leaders in neonatology, and experts in improvement science. Teams gathered to share improvement stories and generate new ideas to implement at their center. The 2022 Annual Quality Congress convened hundreds of healthcare professionals and families to learn about and discuss new data, new science, and new approaches in newborn care. 277852 0 TRIALS:ELBW Follow-up: 18-24 Month "follow-up" continues for infants born between 401 and 1000 grams or 22 weeks 0 days to 27 weeks 6 days. 45 enters participated in 2022 for the 2019 birth year cohort. Centers received reports of their data by birth year as well as a network cohort report. The New England Follow-Up Network also received their own group report. VON Days: In 2022, there were twelve VON Day Audits on the Ins and Outs of Neonatal Care (aka Critical Transitions). Seventy-three Centers participated in VON Days audits each unit was evaluated and 1,136 infant transitions were evaluated. Additionally, one VON Day Audit on Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome was held. One state participated, with a total of 20 centers participating and 11 infants evaluated. For each of the VON Day Audits, participating centers received reports of their audits.COCHRANE NEONATAL REVIEW - VON continued to sponsor the Cochrane Neonatal Group. Cochrane Neonatal is one of over 50 collaborative review groups of Cochrane. Cochrane is an international not-for-profit and independent organization, dedicated to making up-to-date, accurate information about the effects of healthcare readily available worldwide. As a member of Cochrane, Cochrane Neonatal prepares and disseminates evidence-based, regularly updated systematic reviews of the effects of therapies in neonatal-perinatal medicine. The Cochrane Neonatal Group published nine reviews in 2022. 1613297 5126096 DATABASE/MEMBERSHIP SERVICES:Membership: In 2022 there were 1171 active members in the Database. Membership in the Network for the Very Low Birth Weight Database (up to 1500 grams) cost $5550 in 2022. The 2022 fee for the Expanded Database (all NICU admissions) membership was based on hospital size (AHA Data). Small hospitals were $6050 per year, medium hospitals were $7500 per year and large or Children's hospitals were $8950 per year. Membership entitled members to yearly reports from the database, access to the Internet reporting system and participation in clinical trials.Scientific studies of the quality of care carried out in intensive care nurseries included preparation of reports on results. In 2023 we published the Vermont Oxford Network Annual Database Summary for 2022, a detailed compendium describing the practices and outcomes at 1088 neonatal units caring for very low birth weight infants and the Vermont Oxford Network 2022 Expanded Database Summary describing the practices and outcomes of all NICU infants regardless of birth weight at 546 units participating in the expanded database. The Nightingale Internet reporting system was provided to members. It allows confidential password protected access to hospital specific reports and Network comparison data. 1140250 21080 0 GLOBAL NEONATOLOGY:GLOBAL HEALTH INITIATIVE VON develops partnerships and supports health professionals around the world with training and research that addresses the specific needs and constraints of resource-limited settings. In 2020, we adapted our volunteer program during the COVID pandemic to support Master's degree Advance Practice Neonatal Nurses at Addis Ababa University through video conferences and tele-mentoring. We continued to build upon our strong foundation of the VON global neonatal database, utilized nationally in Ethiopia in forming the Ethiopian Neonatal Network to inform important research questions and identify quality gaps that must be addressed to improve neonatal care and mortality. In 2022, we received funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to use this platform to form the foundation of our partnership with the African Neonatal Association in forming the African Neonatal Network, now including five African countries. We concluded our project funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation which focuses on the use of tele-mentoring to optimize the use of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) for neonates with Respiratory Distress Syndrome in the Ethiopian Neonatal Network. We continued to collaborate and promote the professional development of colleagues in low- and middle-income countries through research projects and collaborative contributions to the scientific literature. 1140250 21080 0 6532850 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 77 0 1 46 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 5 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 X A Lynn Stillman 8028654814 33 Kilburn St Burlington VT 05401 Jeanette Rogowski PhD Director 0.31 X 0 0 0 Jeffrey D Horbar MD CEO, Sec/Treas 40.00 X X 459761 0 13793 Roger Soll MD President 16.00 X X 183905 0 5200 Richard L Page MD Director 0.31 X 0 0 0 Yolanda Ogbulu Director 0.31 X 0 0 0 William Edwards MD Vice President 0.31 X X 0 0 0 Ira M Bernstein MD Director 0.31 X 0 0 0 David Mortensen Dir of IT 40.00 X 135358 0 15215 Peter Pelaia Dir of Operations 40.00 X 100325 0 18423 Dan Morris Software Developer 40.00 X 103619 0 3067 982968 0 55698 5 0 1 0 Denise ZayackPrecision Investigatio 40 Highgate Road Toronto Ontario CA M8X 2B3 Consulting 176772 HPN Destination Services 8880 E Raintree Drive Suite 260 Scottsdale AZ 85260 Consulting 140131 John Lester 16 Milford Cresent Sherwood Park Alberta CA Consulting 137834 Nancy E Cloutier 431 Church Road Colchester VT 05446 Consulting 101014 4 195245 195245 Membership Dues 862101 6583800 6583800 Registration fees 862101 98207 98207 Special reports/member 862101 59675 59675 6741682 309409 309409 4242544 4118713 123831 123831 123831 7370167 6741682 0 433240 X 21080 21080 662659 94553 568106 2997370 2266852 730518 79177 61208 17969 281337 182860 98477 239150 162319 76831 476 476 37000 37000 47956 47956 1899898 1810700 89198 6202 2526 3676 173564 30038 143526 234773 171321 63452 120707 106889 13818 1028959 1026535 2424 8244 8244 66394 48162 18232 55615 55615 Repairs & Maintenance 426881 334546 92335 Honorarium 128250 121250 7000 Bank Fees 113031 0 113031 Telephone/Communication 96064 23541 72523 178942 67994 110948 8903729 6532850 2370879 0 1685760 696813 52819 257957 208373 214830 188638 947889 501060 228879 446829 12466705 9122530 11294 11187 14865425 10727189 419533 168103 1714518 1581350 2134051 1749453 X 12731374 8977736 12731374 8977736 14865425 10727189 -1533562 -2220076 0 X 0 0 0 X 114417 173358 429308 305694 195245 1218022 7113665 7618414 7523007 6434737 6741682 35431505 7228082 7791772 7952315 6740431 6936927 36649527 0 22108 573455 495694 348438 274231 1713926 22108 573455 495694 348438 274231 1713926 34935601 250006 319984 279479 361325 309409 1520203 250006 319984 279479 361325 309409 1520203 7478088 8111756 8231794 7101756 7246336 38169730 0.91530 0.92650 0.03980 0.03470 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 765837 323010 442827 182052 178050 4002 446829 1 Equalize Health 695 Minnesota Street San Francisco CA 94107 260642778 501(c)(3) 6080 0 Gates Grand Challenges Subaward Oregon Health & Science University 3181 SW Sam Jackson Park Road Portland OR 97239 931176109 Gov't 15000 0 Health Equity Grant 2 X X X X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Jeffrey D Horbar MD CEO, Sec/Treas 459761 0 0 0 0 0 13793 0 0 0 473554 0 0 0 Roger Soll MD President 183905 0 0 0 0 0 5200 0 0 0 189105 0 0 0 David Mortensen Dir of IT 135358 0 0 0 0 0 4115 0 11100 0 150573 0 0 0 Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7a VON and the University of Vermont have an affiliation agreement in place which seats the Dean of the medical school on VON's Board ex officio and allows the Dean to nominate on other Board member Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b Line 11b Explanation - Directors to review prior to Executive Director signing the 990.
