Objectives. To assess obstetrician-gynecologists' judgments of gestational age of viability and earliest age of medical intervention for preterm delivery, and to associate these practice decisions with physician characteristics. Methods. Questionnaires were mailed to 1193 members of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG). Results. The response rate was 59%. The majority of respondents considered 24 weeks the earliest age a fetus is potentially viable (57%) and at which… Expand
