The smallest baby in Korea overcame '1% survival rate' and went home [Anchor Report]

A doll-like baby in her mother's arms.Yerang, who was the 'tinyest baby in the country'

, overcame a 1% survival rate and returned home after 198 days of hospital life.

Yerang, who was in her mother's womb, did not grow from the 21st week due to delayed intrauterine growth.

The mother was also in a dangerous condition due to severe pregnancy poisoning, which caused her blood pressure to soar and her revenge to rise.

The baby is so small that medical staff have been struggling with cesarean section.

Amidst worries and expectations, Yerang was born on April 22 in 25 weeks and 5 days.

The newborn Yerang weighed 260 grams and was only the size of the palm of the house at the time.

[Yang Mi-sun / Professor of Pediatrics at Samsung Seoul Hospital: Right after birth, there were many crises due to respiratory failure, pulmonary blood shock, and fetal obstruction, but the baby bravely overcame all that time and is now 6 months old and 3 kilograms old.]

Ventilator treatment, antibiotics, boosters, and blood transfusions have been treated with high intensity.

When the bowel was blocked by a stool, the medical staff took out the stool little by little every day and overcame the crisis.

When the mother's eyes were temporarily blind due to pregnancy complications, the nurse helped Yerang to breastfeed her.

With the sincerity of my parents and medical staff, I was discharged as a miracle child weighing 3.19kg, which has grown more than 10 times from my birth.

Let's listen to the overwhelming feelings of the medical staff who faced the moment of emotion.

[Jang Yoon-sil / Director of the MoA Intensive Care Center, Samsung Medical Center: It's a gift for not only the parents who gave birth to Yerang, but also all the teachers at the MoA Intensive Care Center who took care of her. I think it's a very happy and blessed thing to give hope to very small babies who are in the survival phase and to those who have abnormalities.
