Abstract

Lay Summary Necrotizing enterocolitis remains one of the most common gastrointestinal emergencies in neonates. Neonates admitted to a resource-restricted neonatal intensive care unit with a presumptive diagnosis of advanced NEC were reviewed. We were able to identify risk factors associated with a higher chance of death or poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. Our outcomes are comparable with international literature.
