In current NICU we often have to face to the problems to manage newborn babies with poor prognosis. It is needed to make classification for treatment according to the severity of the prognosis. As follows : Class A ; provide all possible treatments, Class B ; limitted treatments, Class C ; observe with current treatments and routine care, Class D ; discontinue all treatments. On making the decision, medical information is most important but we also have to consider familial, social, legal and bioethical elements. It never means that we neglect the right to live of these babies who can not express their will. This process of decision making is arbitrary, thoughtful discussion is needed for every case.
