Summary
Advances in perinatal and neonatal care are closely linked with the improvement in the survival rate of extremely low birth weight infants (ELBWI). Increased survival rate is the result of major changes in obstetrics and neonatal strategies and therapeutic procedures. The question is whether these changes in perinatal care have also brought about shortterm and long-term positive results in morbidity in the child population. Despite the decrease in the neonatal morbidity rate, it appears that neonatal mortality remains stable. Frequently asked questions by parents aimed at medical professionals who are involved in the care of their child include questions on the incidence of adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes. In literature, there is a wide range of different data that interpret the incidence of disorders. We present a review of death rates and short and long-term morbidity in extremely premature infants.
Keywords: morbidity; death rate; survival rate; ELBWI
