Did you know that about 1 in 10 babies worldwide are born prematurely – before 37 weeks of pregnancy?

Preemies can be as tiny as 1 to 5 pounds at birth and may need special neonatal intensive care to thrive. Early prenatal care, good nutrition and managing chronic conditions can help reduce the risk. At Summa Health, our patients have access to the specialty services of maternal fetal medicine providers and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) staffed by Akron Children's specialists for those critical medical needs of mother and baby.
