Abstract

170 low birth weight babies admitted to the premature baby unit in the Medical College Hospital, Beach, Calicut, during 1969–71 have been studied, to determine the maternal factors associated with low birth weight and to assess the results of special care to these babies. The methods for reducing the morbidity and mortality among these babies are discussed.
