FFANN Based Cost Effective Major Infant Disease Management

چکیده
In India, 30% to 40 % babies are low birth weight babies (LBW) as opposed to about 5% to 7% of newborn in the west. In India, 7 to 10 million LBW infants are born annually. About 10 % to 12% of Indian babies are born preterm (less than 37 completed weeks) as compared with 5% to 7% incidence in the west. These infants are physically immature and therefore their neonatal mortality is high. It is possible to increase the survival of the infants and quality of human life through prompt and adequate disease management of the newborn.
