What is the survival rate of premature infants born at 32 weeks?

Patient's question:

The child is a 32-week premature baby, and I am very worried about him. Could you please tell me the survival rate of 32-week premature babies?

Doctor's answer:

Currently, the survival rate of premature infants at 32 weeks is approximately 60% to 80%. With the improvement of medical technology and the enhancement of pregnant women's awareness of prenatal health care, the survival rate of premature infants has gradually increased. Of course, the survival rate also depends on factors such as the lung maturity of premature infants, infections, feeding tolerance, the occurrence of intraventricular hemorrhage and periventricular leukomalacia, and the occurrence of ventilator-associated pneumonia.
