What is the earliest gestational age, assuming dating is correct, where you (or your hospital) routinely offer active postnatal resuscitation if desired by the family
If an infant at 22-24 weeks GA has evidence of inadequate organ perfusion (low urine output, decreasing BP), what is your first line treatment:
