Median response time was 42\u2003min, on\u2010scene stabilization time 38\u2003min and transportation time 30\u2003min. Median gestational age (GA) was 38\u2003weeks and 4.8% of the neonates were &lt;1000\u2003g and\/or &lt;28\u2003weeks. Main clinical problems were respiratory disease, asphyxia and malformations; 30 neonates (12%) died within 1\u2003year. No deaths were transport\u2010related. Tube or ventilator problems were noted in seven out of 66 transports of ventilated neonates. Other technical problems were few. Regarding ventilation, oxygenation and circulation, the clinical condition of most neonates improved during transport and the median temperature rose from 36.5\u00b0C to 37.0\u00b0C. Hypoglycemia (&lt;2\u2003mmol\u2003l<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>) was documented in 19 missions after transport; of these, eight received a glucose infusion.
