简要总结
The aim of this study is to assess the level of the perinatal healthcare institution (PHI) where the newborns were delivered. We included newborns of both genders that were born in the maternity wards in 10 cantons of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (FBiH). From the PHI of the first and second level, 159 newborns were referred to the third level. Out of a total of 159 LBWI referred from other PHI, only 19.5% LBWI were transported in less than 4 hours. In second level PHI, most LBWI died in the first 12 hours after birth.
