The incidence of complications in EP infants between 2008–2012 and 2013–2017. It was shown that the incidence of RDS and BPD increased during 2013–2017 when compared to 2008–2012 (p<0.001 and p<0.01, but PVL decreased (p<0.001). There were no significant differences in the incidence of ROP, NEC, IVH and Sepsis. RDS: Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome; BPD: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia; ROP: Retinopathy of prematurity; NEC: Necrotizing enterocolitis; IVH: Intraventricular hemorrhage; PVL: Periventricular leukomalacia. Sepsis: blood culture-positive nosocomial sepsis. **:p<0.01; ***: p<0.001
