The Late Preterm: A Population at Risk.
Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America 2018 December
Late preterm infants (LPIs) are born between 34 0/7 and 36 6/7 weeks' gestation and account for 72% of all preterm births in the United States. Born as much as 6 weeks early, the LPI misses the critical growth and development specific to the third trimester.

Common morbidities include respiratory complications, feeding difficulty, hypoglycemia, temperature instability, hyperbilirubinemia, and neurodevelopmental delays.
