10 Μαΐ 2023 · Preterm is defined as babies born alive before 37 weeks of pregnancy are completed. There are sub-categories of preterm birth, based on gestational age: extremely preterm (less than 28 weeks) very preterm (28 to less than 32 weeks) moderate to late preterm (32 to 37 weeks).
Late preterm infants, defined as newborns born between 340/7-366/7 weeks of gestational age, constitute a unique group among all premature neonates. Often overlooked because of their size when compared to very premature infants, this population is ...
Infants born at 340⁄7through 366⁄7 weeks’ gestation, or “late-preterm” infants, are often the size and weight of some term infants. Because of this fact, late-preterm infants may be treated by parents, caregivers, and health care professionals as though they are developmentally mature and at low risk of morbidity.
24 Ιουν 2021 · ABSTRACT: The neonatal risks of late-preterm and early-term births are well established, and the potential neonatal complications associated with elective delivery at less than 39 0/7 weeks of gestation are well described. However, there are a number of maternal, fetal, and placental complications in which either a late-preterm or early-term ...
22 Μαρ 2024 · Late preterm, born between 34 and 36 completed weeks of pregnancy. Moderately preterm, born between 32 and 34 weeks of pregnancy. Very preterm, born between 28 and 32 weeks of pregnancy. Extremely preterm, born before 28 weeks of pregnancy. Most premature births happen in the late preterm stage.
20 Ιουν 2023 · Late preterm infants are born at a gestational age (GA) between 34 weeks and 0 days, and 36 weeks and 6 days. They have higher morbidity and mortality rates than term infants (GA ≥37 weeks) due to their relative physiologic and metabolic immaturity, even though they are often the size and weight of some term infants.
Late preterm newborns are the fastest growing subset of neonates, accounting for approximately 74% of all preterm births and about 8% of total births.
