Summary Introduction
To explain: Whether the statement, “This infant has a chronological age of 3 months and a corrected age of 1 month” is true or false.
Introduction: Corrected age is calculated by subtracting the infant's gestational age at birth from 40 weeks, which is the length of a full-term pregnancy. The resulting number of weeks is divided by four to obtain months. The result in months is then subtracted from the infant's current age.
