Abstract

The transportability of a premature neonatal infant is determined using the Clinical Assessment Seale for Premature Infants (Patent No. 2318444). Transportation to a high-level care hospital is possible only when the baby’ general condition is not more than 8 scores. The total score of 9 to 14 scores is a contraindication to transportation because the latter can lead to death. To improve the outcome of disease, it is advisable to continue the treatment of the infant at home until his/her health assessment is not greater than 8 scores.
