This is a retrospective cross-sectional study based on weekly routine collection of hospital records of VLBW babies admitted to CMJAH in South Africa between 2013 and 2018 (n = 2,333). Data was extracted from a standardized VLBW database administered by the unit which is used for registering all VLBW neonates who are born and/or admitted within the first 28 days (neonatal period) of life. Data analysis was done using statistical software for data management and analysis (STATA 15.0). A diagnosis of NEC was made based on clinical and radiological evidence of stage II or III, according to Bell’s criteria.
