2007, Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal MedicineCitation Excerpt :Although the group also noted an increase in the absolute number of children with CP, the number of survivors free of CP rose even more, from 39 per year in 1979–1980 to 150 per year in 1997.93 Other regional studies have reported increases in ‘quality-adjusted life-years’ and decreases in ‘functional disabilities’ for ELBW survivors, lending further evidence to the effectiveness of neonatal intensive care.90,94 Data on the efficiency of neonatal intensive care has been evaluated in terms of cost/effectiveness ratios.
