ABSTRACT

Elevated iron indices may be underrecognized in preterm infants. Sixty growing, stable preterm infants < 1500 g studied had elevated iron indices, which was especially elevated in male infants. Careful evaluation of iron indices is essential to prevent potential organ injury and unnecessary iron supplementation.
