Abstract
Conclusion. - This survey has enabled the monitoring of the children population in maternity units, on a given day, in France. It showed that the rate of NI in the paediatric population seems low compared to previous data or other countries'data. Efforts need to be made in order to lower it further. Incidence surveillance method is preferable to single out which risk factors can be acted upon. Standardized national protocols are offered to maternity units and should soon be available for newborns units as well as older children units.
