Nutrient intake and consumption of supplementary nutrition by pregnant mothers in ICDS and non-ICDS areas--a pilot study.

Thus, most of the survivors of neonatal ventilation had a normal development between 6-12 months age. A better developmental outcome of inborn infants strongly suggests that until specialized neonatal transport services are developed, the aim must be to anticipte the neonatal problems and carry out intramural transfer. Infants must be followed up till atleast six months of corrected age and preferably longer to evaluate their development. This pilot study would require a larger number of babies followed before our findings can be generalized in the Indian setting.
