AbstractNeonatal intensive care units (NICUs) developing a tiny baby program—a clinical approach for care of infants born before 24 weeks’ gestation—have a limited, but growing, body of evidence to guide practice. Infants born 22–23 weeks have more immature organ development and physiology than more mature extremely low birth weight infants.

AbstractThe perinatal and neonatal periods are the periods of considerable organ development and maturation. Perinatal and neonatal illnesses can result in mortality and morbidities that burden families and the healthcare system. Outcome prediction is essential for informing perinatal and intensive care management, prognosis, and post-discharge interventions.

We assessed Bayley III scores at two years adjusted age for EP infants and TR infants born in the same NRN centers and examined by the same assessors who had been trained to reliability [18] and were blinded to gestational age at birth, perinatal events, and prior follow-up findings. The mean composite cognitive, motor, and language scores were 83.9, 83.3, and 80.2, respectively, for the EP infants and 97.5, 98.2, and 97.9, respectively, for the TR group.
