Obstetric determinants of neonatal survival: Antenatal predictors of neonatal survival and morbidity in extremely low birth weight infants

Objective: The aim of the study was to compare clinical and ultrasonographic variables obtained before delivery as predictors of neonatal survival and morbidity in infants weighing ≤1000 g at birth. Study Design: Maternal data available before the birth of singleton infants with birth weights ≤1000...

Zusammenfassung:Objective: The aim of the study was to compare clinical and ultrasonographic variables obtained before delivery as predictors of neonatal survival and morbidity in infants weighing ≤1000 g at birth. Study Design: Maternal data available before the birth of singleton infants with birth weights ≤1000 g who were delivered at the 11 tertiary perinatal centers of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Network of Maternal-Fetal Medicine Research Units were studied. Births that followed extramural delivery, antepartum stillbirths, multiple gestations, induced abortions, infants with major malformations, and fetuses delivered at
