[A new method for the classification of neonates based on maturity and somatic development].
The author points out the sad fact that the methods of estimating classifying, comparative examining of the maturity, somatic development of newborns and the methods of marking off the retarded newborns used up to now are essentially centering round the birth-weight. He exposes the errors, deficiencies of these methods and confronts them with the possibilities of the NDN-system (newborn's somatic development and nutritional state) worked out earlier by him. He thinks the NDF-system to be able to express simultaneously and exactly the gestational age, weight- and length-development, state of being fed of the newborns and the relation to the populational average, the fact and type of retardation, as well. The informational means of NDF-system in NDF-index. The NDF-system makes it possible to break down the birth-weight centric view as it offers a more suitable and qualified method than used before to describe the maturity and somatic development and the classifying of the newborns on the basis of these.
