A research report submitted to the Faculty of Health Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Medicine in Epidemiology and Biostatistics , Johannesburg, 2013 / Previous studies have found prematurity to be consistently associated with necrotising enterocolitis (NEC). At Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital (CHBAH) in 1994, prematurity, antepartum haemorrhage and positive blood culture at birth were associated with NEC. This study looked at the maternal and neonatal factors that are associated with NEC at CHBAH during the era of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
