Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Poster Description
Evidence-based research and practice is revealing that the practice of rooming-in has many benefits for both mother and infant in the immediate postpartum period. Hospitals around the nation and the world are implementing rooming-in over traditional nurseries in hopes of attaining these benefits. Several studies regarding this concept have come to the conclusion that rooming-in is best practice in various obstetrical units for many reasons. These benefits include higher breastfeeding rates, increased confidence, better sleep quality, more skin-to-skin opportunities, earlier identification of cues, and more. Some hospitals who have implemented the practice of mandatory rooming-in are now called “Baby-Friendly” due to their support of individualized care, maternal bonding, and infant feeding.
