Abstract

Teleneonatology, encompassing all telemedicine applications in neonatal medicine, is evolving with innovative applications for use in all aspects of neonatal care. In this chapter, we discuss the key components of and a framework for the development, implementation and evaluation of a program based on existing literature and our own program. We also review some important barriers to implementation and potential solutions. We hope that this review will serve as a guide for those seeking to develop and implement other new teleneonatology programs.
