“…The total incidence of 16% was comparable to the findings of others (8, 9, 13). Like others we found no difference in survival or sequelae rate between patients born in Lund and patients referred from other hospitals (3,13,21). Two factors may have contributed to this: 1) Many highrisk pregnant women were referred to our Maternity hospital prior tb delivery so that these infants influenced the results of the patients born in Lund.…”

“…Cerebral palsy too does not appear as an important cause of handicap among survivors, whereas Lubchenco et al (1963) were to report spastic diplegia in 35% of children who had weighed < 1500 g at birth some 11-14 years later. A proportion of the survivors of neonatal mechanical ventilation in recent years tend to have other forms of cerebral palsy as frequently as spastic diplegia, and to be moderately or severely, rather than mildly handicapped (Fitzhardinge et al, 1976;Marriage and Davies, 1977). Survival rates have of course been increasing slowly but steadily since 1946.…”

“…The most studied medical complication among preterms has been respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), which occurs in 40% of all preterms, with a higher incidence in very low birthweight groups (Ambrus, BVeintraub, Niswander, Fisch, Fleishman, Bross, & Ambrus, 1970;Marriage & Davies, 1977;Robertson & Crichton, 1969). However, RDS is only one of a number of medical complications that preterm infants may suffer.…”
