Abstract

Newborn ICU (NICU) design has changed dramatically in the past 25 years, perhaps more than any other area of the hospital. Research and experience have demonstrated the pervasive effect of the physical environment not only on the developing newborn brain, but also on the families and caregivers who spend many hours a day in the NICU.
