Periviable birth refers to births occurring between 20 0/7 and 25 6/7 weeks gestational age. Management of pregnant people and neonates during this fragile time depends on the clinical status, as well as the patient's wishes. Providers should be prepared to counsel patients at the cusp of viability, being mindful of the uncertainty of outcomes for these neonates. While it is important to incorporate the data on projected morbidity and mortality into one's counseling, shared-decision making is most essential to caring for these patients and optimizing outcomes for all.
