Medical - Medical: Health Care / premature infants
Swedish term or phrase: HO
HO med catch-up-tillväxt från -3SD vid fullgången tid, korrigerad för prematuritet, till -2SD, som pat följer sedan två veckors ålder, korrigerad för prematuritet.

Pat föddes alltså underburen och vid tiden han "borde" enligt standardförväntingar ha fötts låg han kring -3SD i fråga om tillväxt.
Sedan lyckades han på två veckor "växa ikapp" till -2SD.

"Korrigerad för prematuritet" innebär väl att underburenhet tas med i beräkningen av tillväxtavvikelsen (?)

Men vad står HO för?
