In this paper, we provide a comprehensive review of the advancements in inter-hospital transport and nursing care for critically ill neonates.This review covers indications for neonatal transport, collaboration models during transport, pre-transport nursing care, including the coordination of transport teams, the preparation of transport vehicles and communication equipment, the readiness of transport instruments and medications, and nursing care prior to departure.Furthermore, we examine in-transit nursing care, addressing both the care provided during transport and upon arrival, while also focusing on managing transport-rela-ted nursing risks, which include hypothermia, hypoglycemia, hypoxemia, and unintended extubation.We emphasize the importance of accurate documentation and handover after arrival, the necessity of post-transport follow-up, and the evaluation of transport nursing care quality.This comprehensive review aims to offer guidance and support for clinical practices surrounding nurse-led transport of critically ill neonates.
