[189] With extensive treatment up to 30% of those who survive birth at 22 weeks survive longer term as of 2019. [190] The chances of survival without long-term difficulties is less. [24]

Research into preterm births indicates that "a fetus born before 24 weeks of gestation has a limited chance of survival. At 24, 28 and 32 weeks, a fetus has approximately a 20–30%, 80% and 98% likelihood of survival with a 40%, 10% and ...
