DO SICK EX-LOW BIRTH WEIGHT CHILDREN UNDERUSE MEDICAL CARE?

[摘要] Low birth weight children were found to have more chronic conditions, more limitations of activity, poorer health status as perceived by parents, and more school days lost because of illness. However, numbers of physician visits were not different even for low birth weight children younger than 2 years, which is inconsistent with the higher proportions of multiple hospitalizations, chronic conditions, and other illness measures.
