no fetus has lasted more than forty-eight hours. Dr. Geoffrey Chamberlain, a British scientist then in Washington, D.C., on a year's research. scholarship, has kept alive some much younger fetuses,[than six months] weighing only 300 to 980 grams, which were obtained during Cesarean section for therapeutic abortions.
Chamberlain's method is to save the umbilical cord and connect it to a combination heart-lung-kidney machine. In a report in the Ob-Gyn Observer on his most successful experiment, Dr. Chamberlain wrote, "A brisk spontaneous flow [of blood] was noted 22 minutes postpartum; the fetus was kept on the circuit for 5 hours and 8 minutes. Only when a cannula slipped out by accident and could not be reintroduced was the experiment halted."&nbsp;https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/1971/05/the-obsolescent-mother/304201/</p>
