Study Design: Prospective cohort study. Place and Duration of Study: Study was carried out over a period of six months from Jan 2016 to Jun 2016. Methodology: A total of 130 patients (65 in each group) were included in this study. All infants enrolled in study were followed till first 7 days of life for any morbidity by clinical evaluation. Infants who were discharged before 7 days were called for mandatory follow up evaluation in the outpatient clinic on 7th day of life. Results: Mean age of the babies was 3.28 ± 1.45 and 1.58 ± 0.65 in group-A and B, respectively. Mean gestational age in group-A was 35.18 ± 0.73 weeks and in group-B was 38.38 ± 11.07 weeks. Mean weight (kg) of neonates was 2.53 ± 0.33 in group-A and 3.24 ± 0.49 in group-B. Morbidities were found as follows: Probable sepsis was seen in 17 cases (26.2%) of group-A and 7 cases (10.8%) of group-B with p-value of 0.024. Respiratory morbidity observed in 15 cases (23%) of group-A and 3 cases (4.6%) of group-B with p-value of 0.002. Hyperbilirubinemia developed in 33 cases (50.8%) of group-A and in 15 cases of group-B with p-value of 0.001. Conclusion: The frequency of sepsis, respiratory morbidity and hyperbilirubinemia was more in late preterm as compared to term infantsAli AbbasHaider NisarQudrat Ullah MalikSajid AliBushra AnwarMunir Akmal LodhiArmy Medical College Rawalpindiarticlelate pretermneonatal sepsisneonatal jaundiceshort term neonatal morbiditiesterm infantsMedicineRMedicine (General)R5-920ENPakistan Armed Forces Medical Journal, Vol 71, Iss 2, Pp 287-292 (2021)
