Popis: | The two extremes of birth weight (1500 g and4000 g) require antepartum surveillance and anticipation of complications during labor and delivery. Prognosis for the very low birth weight carries with it inherent neurologic impairment even when cared for under the best of conditions. In contrast, the macrosomic fetus enjoys a generally excellent outcome regardless of management. The current concern is too much intervention to avoid a low probability of complications. |
