Resumo

This thesis finds there is a need for greater transparency and objectivity in end-of-life decision making for extremely premature and critically ill infants. To achieve this objectivity, the allocation of finite public healthcare resources, and corresponding quality of life, should be a principal consideration in treatment decisions.
