By sifting through #electronic #health records of moms and babies using a machine-learning #algorithm, #scientists can predict how at-risk #newborns will fare in their first two months of life. The new method allows #physicians to classify, at or before #birth, which #infants are likely to develop complications of #prematurity.

*World #Prematurity Day 2022*
Launch of the WHO recommendations for care of the preterm or low birth weight infant
An estimated 15 million babies are born too early every year. That is more than 1 in 10 babies. Approximately 1 million children die each year due to complications of preterm birth. Many surviving babies face a lifetime of disability, including learning disabilities and visual and hearing problems.
