Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R, Over 15 million babies are born each year prematurely globally, with a million dying.1 Data indicates that India contributes 23-24% of the world birth average, with approximately one in every six (13-17%) live births being preterm. Premature babies are at a greater risk of death throughout the early, late, and post-neonatal periods. As a result, proper measures must be taken and strictly implemented to avoid and mitigate the devastating long-term effects of premature delivery.2 We have organized an interactive webinar on 23rd February 2023 at 07:30 PM, where renowned experts Dr. Pankaj Garg, Dr. Manju Jilla, Dr. Kiran Coelho, Dr. Rajasree S., and Dr. Vijayanand Jamalpuri (moderator) will share their insights on "Born Too Soon: Addressing Preterm Births."
