Most (57.6%) of the extremely premature infants were born at a hospital without the availability of neonatal and MFM specialists, and 38.4% of the very premature were born at a hospital without a neonatologist. Increasing evidence indicates that delivery at a Level 3 facility results in better survival for these high risk infants. Health professionals, administrators and policy leaders could fashion new approaches to obstetrical care in Arkansas to improve neonatal outcomes.
大多数（57.6%）极早产儿出生于没有新生儿科和母胎医学专家的医院，38.4%的早产儿出生于没有新生儿科医生的医院。越来越多的证据表明，在三级医疗机构分娩可使这些高危婴儿的存活率更高。卫生专业人员、管理人员和政策制定者可以制定新的阿肯色州产科护理方法，以改善新生儿结局。
