Preterm infants are prone to sepsis owing to their immature innate immunity and prolonged hospitalization. We aimed to evaluate the association between late-onset sepsis (LOS) during hospitalization and neurodevelopmental delay at 18-24 months of corrected age in very low birth weight infants (VLBWIs), and to ascertain this association when adjusted for perinatal risk factors.

患有迟发性脓毒症的极低出生体重婴儿在矫正年龄 18-24 个月时的神经发育结果。

早产儿由于先天免疫不成熟和住院时间长，容易发生败血症。我们旨在评估极低出生体重婴儿 (VLBWI) 住院期间迟发性脓毒症 (LOS) 与矫正年龄 18-24 个月时神经发育迟缓之间的关联，并在调整围产期危险因素后确定这种关联。
