Abstract

ABSTRACT The abbreviation LBW is often used to describe low birth weight babies, namely babies who can weigh less than 2500 grams regardless of age. This disease is less likely to affect babies with low birth weight, which means they are at higher risk of death or infection if not treated . To maintain the baby's stability, care is often carried out in his room while maintaining his weak physical condition at that time (LBW).
