Mohammed Ali Al Shorafa Al Hammadi, Managing Director and CEO at United Eastern Medical Services (UEMedical), the parent organization of Danat Al Emarat Hospital, said: "The capabilities of our medical multi-disciplinary team at Danat Al Emarat Hospital are evident in caring for rare and complex cases. The newborn was treated in a timely manner by the hospital's Neonatology team at the hospital's level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) led by a team of internationally-trained neonatologists and qualified NICU nurses. The baby was admitted for 132 days in the NICU and 4 days at the pediatrics ward."
Dr. Iviano Ossuetta, Head of Neonatology and Consultant at Danat Al Emarat Hospital for Women and Children, said: "The case is very rare. Studies show that the global incidence of birth at 23 weeks of pregnancy is about 5 births per 10 thousand births, and the survival rate of such newborns may be as low as 29 per cent.
He added, "Comprehensive tests were performed for the newborn at the time of birth and during her stay in the hospital, including tests for her retina, heart, brain in addition to other screening tests performed for all newborns at Danat Al Emarat Hospital. Before leaving the NICU, the latest tests showed that all her organs were well developed and functional."
Mariano Gonzalez, CEO of Danat Al Emarat Hospital for Women and Children, said "the case of our smallest newborn is another milestone in our list of achievements that we are truly proud of. The baby was discharged from the hospital, weighing 2500 grams and in good health."
The father, Abdullah Ali Al Kaabi, expressed his gratitude for saving the life of his newborn, Reema.
He added, "We have witnessed the great care that the physicians and nurses at Danat Al Emarat have provided my wife and my baby. Thanks to Allah, we have left the hospital in good health after a stay of nearly four months. I truly appreciate the care and medical excellence that was provided to my baby and my family."
