I am trying to do some research on the youngest babies to survive in the N.I.C.U. around the world. In Adelaide Sth. Australia we recently had a baby boy born at 22 weeks and 6 days gestation.He had many of the usual problem associated with being so prem, but apparently is doing really well now.
Could you all help me find out the youngest surviving extreme preemies. Obviously patient confidentiality is very important, so basically all I need to know is for example:"a baby born at 22weeks and 4 days, the hospital and perhaps the year of birth."
I am really only trying to find out the babies born under 24 weeks. So if you could help by telling me the ones born between 21 weeks(I think only little amelia from america was born this young) and 24 at your hospital, I would be really appreciative of your help. Thank you and keep up the great we work of saving these little miracles.
