Quality data

In this diagram we summarize the most important outcome indicators of the clinic for the collective of newborns between 501 and 1500g birth weight for the last 4 years.
The clinic's value (red dot) is shown in relation to the 25th to 75th percentiles of Swiss data of the of the last 4 years (blue), as well as to current international data (gray, source: Vermont Oxford Network).
The Swiss clinics meet twice a year to discuss these and other indicators and to exchange successful prevention measures. The high quality of Swiss clinics is evident in comparison to the international data.
