Abstract Background: Ninety-six percent of the world’s 3 million neonatal deaths occur in developing countries where the majority of births occur outside of a facility. Community-based approaches to the identification and management of neonatal illness have reduced neonatal mortality over the last decade. To further expand life-saving services, improvements in access to quality facility-based neonatal care are required. Evaluation of rural neonatal intensive care unit referral centers provides opportunities to further understand determinants of neonatal mortality in developing countries. Our objective was to describe demographics, clinical characteristics and outcomes from a rural neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in central Uganda from 2005–2008. Methods: The NICU at Kiwoko hospital serves as a referral center for three rural districts of central Uganda. For this cross sectional study we utilized a NICU clinical database that included admission information, demographics, and variables related to hospital course and discharge. Descriptive statistics are reported for all neonates (
