Premature birth is one of the most common leading causes of infant death in the world. Worldwide, 11.4% of all pregnancies end in early delivery. Around 15 million babies are born preterm yearly, which represents 5 to 18% of all babies born.

Ipokrate is observing the World Prematurity Day to raise awareness of premature birth and of the devastating impact it can have on families.
