Study Summary

Palliative care is now an accepted principle in most maternity and neonatology wards, however not much is known about its psychological and social consequences on families. Some children continue their life after a palliative care decision has been taken. In France, quality of life and the neuro-developmental evolution of newborns who continue their life after a palliative care decision has been taken, have never been studied.
