Summary

The goal of this study is to describe the antibiotic use in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in Germany that is practising integrative medicine. The investigators will review hospital records to find out how often and how long antibiotics were given to newborns; compare antibiotic use to other NICU in the same area; describe how sick infected newborns were (comparing those treated with or without antibiotics); and describe which anthroposophic medicines were used, how often and if there were safety problems.
