Abstract
We performed a retrospective case-control cohort study following 146 preterm infants (≤32 weeks of gestation) who had been colonized with extended spectrum beta-lactamase producing Enterobacterales and compared them with 1:1 matched controls regarding rates of hospitalizations and outpatient visits because of infectious and gastrointestinal diseases and developmental impairment up to school age. Preterm infants with extended spectrum beta-lactamase producing Enterobacterales colonization did have neither higher rates of gastrointestinal or infectious diseases nor higher rates of developmental impairments up to the age of 6 years.
