To point out: the dangers, that. lie in the laboratory tests; Epstein recounts a paternity suit he handled two ears ago that he was certain he would win. Epstein felt his client, the \ mother, was able to prove she hadn't had intercourse during the period in question with anyone but the alleged father. To exclude any doubts, Epstein. had blood tests taken to ascertain pat- ernity. To his surprise, the tests showed that the man alleged to be the father was not the father. The day:before the case was to come to court, Epstein received a call from a man who ‘said his conscience had been bothering him. He said he had taken the test in place of the man alleged to be the father. z The Ontario government the power to regulate the such as retarda- tion, deafness and cerebral “We have to find. the causes of this and’see how to reduce the number of prob- lems,” the specialist in new- born babies said. In recent years the number of surviving low-birth-weight babies has doubled st Ste. Justine'’s and at other hos- ‘pitals in North America. METHODS NOW NEW Lefebvre attributed the increased survival rate to more aggressive use of exist- ing techniques, not the dis- covery of any new thethods. For example, fheré is a “trend in neonatal wards to use respirators more exten- sively on low-weight babies. A year ago these infants were put on respirators for a up to severs! months, The study at Ste. Justine’s was begun in 1979, but in- cludes children born as far back as 1976.The researchers intend to follow them at least ‘as far as school entrance. © Out ‘of the 44 children studied, six have disabilities — three are deaf, two have cerebral palsy: and mental retardation, and another is blindness in the study, but < Lefebvre could not explain why since this is a common problem at other hospitals. LUNGS A PROBLEM Eighteen babies had to be readmitted to hospital, most- ly with lung problems. The boys have shown more - growth retardation than the girls. They were born smaller smaller than av- children — five per cent — were given up for adoption. But it is still difficult to conclude at what point a baby- is too small to save without risking serious life-long han- dicaps, Lefebvre said. She said the care of these - infants {s improving so rap- idly that itis hard to apply the problems suffered - by a child born five years ago to one born today.
