Strategic Goal:

Deliver Authoritative Information and Insights

One of BORN's strategic goals is to provide authoritative information and insights to guide policy, practice, and system-level improvement.

In the next five years, we will focus on key outcome areas including

  • major causes of perinatal and maternal morbidity and mortality

  • neonatal health and outcomes (including NICU utilization, infant mortality, and critical congenital heart disease, RSV)

  • paediatric diabetes care, and prenatal screening quality and experience (including aneuploidy detection and beyond)

Focus Areas

Share Actionable Insights about

Neonatal Outcomes

  • Dedicate focus on establishing and populating validated outcome measures of neonatal outcomes, including mortality.

  • Where possible, focus on how outcomes for neonates born at inappropriate level of care (per PCMCH guideline) may vary from in-born care

  • Investigate the trends in neonatal care and how changes in pregnant populations may be having an impact on NICU utilization. (e.g. high rates of neonatal hypoglycemia, obesity)

Inform High-Quality

Paediatric Diabetes Care

  • Enable system-wide quality monitoring and performance benchmarking, helping to identify variations and gaps in pediatric diabetes care.
  • Support targeted interventions and equity in care
  • Drive research and continuous quality improvement (such as evaluation of care models) aimed at optimizing pediatric diabetes care and informing evidence-based policy and practice.

Understand and Improve

Prenatal Screening Quality and Experience

  • Understand how screening is offered and how the process is experienced by the patient
  • Support clinicians in decision-making and results interpretation through guidance documents based on timely data analytics
