At what gestational age/weight would a premature baby not be fully resuscitated?

Is it possible to fully resuscitate a 24 week, 2 day gestation baby?
At what weight would resuscitation not be possible?
And what effects (if any) does hypothermia (loss of body
temperature)cause in a premature baby?
My baby was not placed in an incubator or given oxygen until some 10
hours after her birth. Please help me to understand.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth Miller
