AB  - The  newborn  period  is  defined  as  the  first  28  days  of  life.  In  practice,  however,  sick  or  very  immature  infants  may  require  neonatal  care  for  many  months.  There  are  three  levels  of  newborn  care.  Level  1  refers  to  basic  care  of  well  newborns,  neonatal  resuscitation,  and  stabilization  prior  to  transport.  Level  2  refers  to  specialty  neonatal  care  of  premature  infants  greater  than  1500  g  or  more  than  32  weeks’  gestation.  Level  3  is  subspecialty  care  of  higher  complexity  ranging  from  3A  to  3C  based  on  newborn  size  and  gestational  age.  Level  4  includes  availability  of  general  surgery,  cardiac  surgery,  and  extracorporeal  membrane  oxygenation  (ECMO).  Level  4  care  is  often  part  of  a  perinatal  center  offering  critical  care  and  transport  to  the  high-risk  mother  and  fetus  as  well  as  the  newborn  infant.
