Popis: | To demonstrate that days are important in extreme prematurity when creating survival prediction models based on gestation. Prospectively collected data were analysed for all admitted infants born 23 + 0 to 27 + 6 weeks gestation in the Australian and New Zealand Neonatal Network from 2009 to 2016. The effect of days on observed survival rates was assessed using a non-parametric test for trend. Prediction models created based on gestational age in completed weeks only or weeks plus days were compared. Seven thousand eight hundred and thirty-six extreme preterm infants were studied. Observed survival increased with days for 23, 24, 25, and 27 weeks gestational age (P = 0.01; P |
