Neonatal Intensive Care: The Only Constant Is Change

Shah, Prakesh S.
(N Engl J Med. 2017;376(7):694–696) In this editorial, the author discussed concerns regarding Younge et al’s study on periviable infants (born ≤24 wk). This study found a 4-percentage point increase in the rate of survival without clinically significant neurodevelopmental impairment in periviable infants born between the periods of 2000-2003 to 2008-2011 (P=0.001) and a 1-percentage point increase in the rate of survival with clinically significant neurodevelopmental impairment from the periods of 2000-2003 to 2008-2011 although this was not statistically significant (P=0.29).
