Newborns are given attentive perinatal care but the organization of further follow-up can be haphazard. The main consequences are the difficulties parents have in finding appropriate medical assistance for caring for high-risk infants and the absence of appropriate surveillance or efficient care. An inpatient-outpatient healthcare network enables early care of these infants and can reduce the consequences of neurosensorial sequelae. The overall impact of the regional perinatal care can also be evaluated. Such a network has been implemented in the Pays de Loire region in France since early 2003. In six months, among 1000 initially included infants, 500 were followed by pediatricians working in an outpatient (40%) or inpatient (60%) setting. This organization enables correction of over-centralization of neonatal care and the absence of coordination for follow up.
