As of 2022, the world record for the lowest gestational age newborn to survive is held by Curtis Zy-Keith Means, who was born on 5 July 2020 in the United States, at 21 weeks and 1 day gestational age, weighing 420 grams. [5] A preterm birth, also known as premature birth, is defined as babies born alive before 37 weeks of pregnancy are ...
As weight is easier to determine than gestational age, the World Health Organization tracks rates of low birth weight (< 2,500 grams), which occurred in 16.5% of births in less developed regions in 2000. [205] It is estimated that one third of these low birth weight deliveries are due to preterm delivery.
For example, if there is a gestational age based on the beginning of the last menstrual period of 9.0 weeks, and a first-trimester obstetric ultrasonography gives an estimated gestational age of 10.0 weeks (with a 2 SD variability of ±8% of the estimate, thereby giving a variability of ±0.8 weeks), the difference of 1.0 weeks between the ...
Gestational age: 35 and 0 days until 39 weeks and 6 days old. Embryonic age: Weeks nr 34–38. 33–37 weeks old. The fetus is considered full-term at the end of the 39th week of gestational age. It may be 48 to 53 cm (19 to 21 in) in length. The lanugo is gone except on the upper arms and shoulders. Fingernails extend beyond fingertips.

Doctors specializing in high-risk pregnancies said at public hearings that a fetus’ ability to survive outside the womb is determined by more than gestational age.
Fetal viability refers to a point in fetal development at which the fetus may survive outside the womb. The lower limit of viability is approximately 5 + 3 ⁄ 4 months gestational age and is usually later. [20] There is no sharp limit of development, age, or weight at which a fetus automatically becomes viable. [21]
In Indonesia, both men and women can retire at age 57, but the retirement age is rising. The retirement age in Indonesia will rise to 58 in 2024 and will rise another year every three years until ...
