Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
The shorter the gestational age, the lower the birth weight and the shorter the length of the infant. Liveborn infants born before 37 weeks of gestation are called premature infants or immature infants. Most of them have a birth weight of less than 2,500g and a head circumference of less than 33cm. A small number of infants who are confirmed to be premature but have a birth weight exceeding 2,500g and whose organ function and adaptability are poorer than those of full-term infants should still receive special care for premature infants.
