Y1 - 1 N1 - T2 - Obstetric Intensive Care Manual, 5e AB - The broad framework of regionalization is based on the notion that sophisticated perinatal care should be available to every patient within a designated region, even if it is not specifically available at each hospital within the region. The level of care provided within individual hospitals is determined by the availability of technology, skilled nursing and medical personnel, and other related support services. Thus, when transport becomes necessary, its purpose is to match a patient to the level of technology and support she and her baby need.
