FRAGMENTO
Anualmente ocurren en el mundo cuatro millones de muertes neonatales y gran proporción de las mismas es debida a problemas asociados a la premadurez.1 Un neonato pretérmino tiene inmadurez y falta de desarrollo de algunos órganos y sistemas. Así, la falta de maduración pulmonar es una de las principales causas de morbilidad y mortalidad neonatal. También existen muchos otros problemas en este grupo vulnerable de neonatos nacidos antes de término, como son: hemorragia intraventricular, retinopatía del prematuro, displasia broncopulmonar, infecciones, etc. Para mejorar la supervivencia neonatal, es indispensable evitar la premadurez y sus complicaciones y es importante abordar al binomio madre-hijo, para intervenir durante el embarazo o inclusive antes del mismo. Deben existir esfuerzos conjuntos entre el ginecólogo y el neonatólogo en el análisis de cada embarazo y la planeación de las mejores estrategias para obtener los mejores resultados perinatales.
