title: Beyond the nursery door: the obligation to survivors of technology.
abstract: Using today's technology, physicians can accomplish miracles, not only in keeping an infant alive, but in bringing a nearly dead child back to life. Physicians must redefine progress to include thoughtful and considered actions, not merely experimental heroics, however, and society must provide comprehensive care for children and families that experience the pain of failed outcome.
