Outcomes of infants with birthweights less than 501 g compared to infants weighing 501–750 g at a center utilizing first intention high frequency jet ventilation
ELBW<sup><501</sup> infants are at risk for significant morbidity and mortality. However, with specialized obstetric and neonatal care, survival rates of 60% are possible with respiratory outcomes comparable to ELBW<sup>501-750</sup> infants. However, the increased risk of severe ROP for ELBW<sup><501</sup> requiring either surgical or medical intervention is concerning and warrants optimal surveillance.
