Risk categories
Extremely high risk: The Working Group considered that babies with a >90% chance of either dying or surviving with severe impairment if active care is instigated would fit into this category. For example, this would include:
Babies at 22+0 to 22+6 weeks of gestation with unfavourable risk factors.
Some babies at 23+0 to 23+6 weeks of gestation with unfavourable risk factors, including severe fetal growth restriction.
(Rarely) babies ≥24+0 weeks of gestation with significant unfavourable risk factors, including severe fetal growth restriction.
High risk: The Working Group considered that babies with a 50–90% chance of either dying or surviving with severe impairment if active care is instituted would fit into this category. For example, this would include
Babies at 22+0 to 23+6 weeks of gestation with favourable risk factors.
Some babies ≥24+0 weeks of gestation with unfavourable risk factors and/or comorbidities.
Moderate risk: The Working Group considered that babies with a <50% chance of either dying or surviving with severe impairment if active care is instituted would fit into this category. For example, this would include
Most babies ≥24+0 weeks of gestation.
Some babies at 23+0 to 23+6 weeks of gestation with favourable risk factors.
