IPI Pediatric Hospital Consortium

Three of the most innovative and well respected children's hospitals in the country have joined together to form the IPI Pediatric Hospital Consortium. This Consortium is helping to identify the medical products that are most needed to improve the care of children and neonates. Clinicians from the Consortium hospitals will help to identify issues, specify products, and test these products. They will also ensure that these new products meet the unique requirements for pediatric care.
