    These problems will be a higher probability that the infant will be born prematurely. The infant will most likely have a low birth weight.

  • Infant mortality rates discussed

    (Insel and Roth 2008) Low birth weight is a primary risk factor for infant mortality and most of the decline in neonatal mortality. In the United States the infant mortality problem arises because of its birthweight distribution.
