Abstract
Neonatal outcomes and infant mortality rates have improved significantly in the past century. However, the disparities in outcomes linked to racial and ethnic variations have persisted and actually increased. Those differences in outcomes have been acknowledged for years as care providers strive to improve care for all of our most vulnerable and youngest individuals. Trends in neonatal outcomes are summarized.
