AB This  chapter  addresses  the  initial  care  of  premature  infants  of  <1000  g  birthweight.  Many  aspects  of  the  care  of  extremely  low  birthweight  (ELBW)  infants  are  controversial,  and  each  institution  must  develop  its  own  philosophy  and  techniques  for  management.  It  is  of  utmost  importance  to  follow  the  practices  of  your  own  institution.  This  chapter  offers  guidelines  that  the  authors  have  found  useful  for  stabilizing  and  caring  for  extremely  small  infants.
