Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to compare mortality and morbidity rates between inborn and outborn very preterm infants (born before 32 weeks) in Western Australia from 2005 to 2018.
  • Outborn infants had a significantly higher mortality rate (20.5%) compared to inborn infants (7.4%) and also experienced greater instances of combined brain injury (10.7% vs 6.0%).
