Dr. Shelley Korones listens to an infants heart in the NICU at the Regional Medical Center in Memphis, Tenn., Wednesday, Oct. 10, 2007. This infant was suffering from an abnormal heart. A 2002 federal report put Memphis at the top of the list for infant deaths in American cities: 692 dead babies over a four-year span, a rate of more than 15 deaths for every 1,000 births, more than twice the U.S. average.
