pubmed:abstractText |
The purpose of this work is to clarify by path analysis which of the predictor factors of mortality in a cohort of 423 singletons VLBW infants born at Beilinson Medical Center during the years 1980-1990 (pre-surfactant era) exert direct or indirect effect on mortality. A direct risk factor was defined as a factor having an immediate effect on the outcome without working through an intermediate variable. By contrast, an indirect risk factor was defined as a factor that does not have a direct effect on the risk of mortality but instead works through an intermediate variable. Evaluation of mortality was done at three points over time (pre-delivery, at birth and post-delivery).
