Abstract

Even before the 1960s and the introduction of the specialty of neonatology, and continuing to the present, numerous efforts have been made to understand the association between newborn birthweight and the risk of mortality. With the development of neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), attention to survival rates and neurological outcomes among those at the lowest birthweights and gestational ages (GA) has grown. Defining the lower limits of GA or birthweight associated with the neonatal outcomes is important for clinicians, families and others to inform appropriate decision-making and clinical care.
