Iatrogene Frühgeburt und Späte Frühgeborene 34⁰/7 bis 36⁶/7 – Risiken und Chancen

Zusammenfassung

Späte Frühgeborene mit einem Gestationsalter 34⁰/7–36⁶/7 sind physiologisch, anatomisch und metabolisch unreif und entwickeln in Folge signifikant häufiger medizinische Komplikationen, haben eine erhöhte Morbidität und eine erhöhte Mortalität. Die Beachtung dieser Erkenntnisse erfordert in Zukunft neue Strategien und Vorgehensweisen im geburtshilflichen peripartalen und neonatalen Management unter Beachtung der mütterlichen und auch kindlichen Risiken und Belange.

Abstract

Late preterm births with a gestational age of 34⁰/7–36⁶/7 are physiologically, anatomically and metabolically immature and develop medical complications significantly more frequently, have a high morbidity and an elevated mortality. Consideration of this knowledge will in future require new strategies for obstretric, peripartal and neonatal management options that take into account not only maternal risks and demands but also those of the infant.
