Most common used method for gestational age assessment is Ballard's score which includes various parameters and neurologic parameters and difcult to assess in sick neonate where parkin score only uses 4 criteria for assessment of gestational age. This prospective analytical study was conducted to compare new Ballard's score and parkin's score between healthy and sick neonates in tertiary care center
