Tiny Premature Baby Survives At St Luke's Milestone
Nicholas Fogarty, born at 700 grams, is the first survivor discharged from St Luke's neonatal unit. Doctor James Ziska says the 4 month old, now 6 lbs 8 oz, demonstrates a new hands off approach and highlights the unit's 24 hour pediatric coverage and rapid transfer advantages. The case supports ongoing study with other preemies and credits Iowa City specialists Allan Erenberg and Herman Hein. Mavis Fogarty credits Ziska for her son's recovery amid ongoing parental strain and divorce proceedings.
