Intact survival of infants delivered before completion of the 26th week of gestation or weighing less than 500 g is a well known phenomenon. We recently cared for an infant whose birth weight was 380 g, making her one of the smallest survivors in the United States. Her hospitalization (including expenses), the techniques of our minimal intervention protocol and her 20-month (corrected) follow-up are presented together with a discussion of the moral, economic and social implications involved in the care of such an infant.
妊娠26周前分娩或体重不足500克的婴儿能完好存活是一个众所周知的现象。我们最近照料了一名出生体重为380克的婴儿，这使她成为美国体重最轻的存活者之一。本文介绍了她的住院情况（包括费用）、我们的最小干预方案所采用的技术以及她20个月（矫正年龄）的随访情况，并讨论了照料这样一名婴儿所涉及的道德、经济和社会问题。
