Abstract
Our study is one of the few investigating the short-term outcome of preterm VLBW Italian children born in the second half of the 2000s. Neurodevelopmental assessment at 24 months revealed a marked reduction in major sequelae. Several risk factors for a poor neurodevelopmental outcome identified in children born in earlier periods were confirmed in these children born in recent years.
