According to the British "Daily Mail" reported on April 25th, foreign scientists have initially developed artificial uterus technology. The artificial uterus completely simulates the life style of the fetus in the mother, wraps the fetus in a special liquid similar to amniotic fluid, and lets the fetus breathe through a tube similar to the umbilical cord. This means that it is possible to raise premature babies with artificial uterus.

Scientists first selected lambs for experiments. They selected lambs similar to human 23-week-old babies and put them into artificial uterus to see if they could survive. As a result, the experiment was a great success. Scientists will apply this technology to human experiments in the next five years.

Artificial uterus technology aims to help premature infants with weak vital signs to tide over the difficulties, which plays a better role than traditional incubators. Scientists emphasize that this technology is not to replace the natural conception of human beings, but to provide a safe living environment for premature babies.

In Britain, the survival rate of premature infants at 23 weeks is only 1, and artificial uterus is expected to improve the survival rate of premature infants. Allen, a Philadelphia doctor? Fraker said that there is no technology comparable to the mother's uterus, but this technology can imitate the uterus to the greatest extent and bring an unprecedented safe living environment for premature babies.
