Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Low birth weight infants are those born weighing less than 2500 g. These are further subdivided into:
* Very Low Birth Weight : Birth weight \<1,500 g
* Extremely Low Birth Weight : Birth weight \<1,000 g Their survival is directly related to birth weight, with approximately 20% of those between 500 and 600 g and\>90% of those between 1,250 and 1,500 g surviving. Perinatalcare has improved the rate of survival of low birth weight infants.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
* Premature birth
* Intrauterine growth restriction, which are most often Due to different placental problems and health problems of the mother or new-born
RISK FACTORS:
* Age: Teen mothers have a much higher risk of having VLBW infant.
* Multiple birth babies are at increased risk of being VLBW because they often are premature. More than 50% of twins and other multiple gestations are VLBW if \<15 years
* Maternal health: Women exposed to drugs, alcohol, and cigarettes during pregnancy are more likely to have low birth weight babies. Mothers of lower socioeconomic
* Race: African-American babies are twice as likely as Caucasian to be very low birth weight
