The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether increased resources led to a higher rate of survival among infants with a birth weight less than or equal to 1,500 g, admitted to our department during the period 1983-88. During this period both personnel and equipment were upgraded. The number of patients more than doubled from 1983-84 to 1987-88 (37 versus 89). In spite of a significant decrease in gestational age from the first to the last period (29.6 weeks versus 28.2 weeks), the total mortality rate was halved, from 40.5% in 1983-84 to 22.5% in 1987-88. There was no significant increase in disability rate among survivors. The larger increasing number of disabled children was accounted for mainly by mild spastic diplegias.
