Echocardiography evaluation coupled with cTnT and NTpBNP measurements were done at 48 h. The ductus arteriosus was scored (0\u20136) according to echocardiography markers of haemodynamic significance. Infants were assessed at 2 years using the Bayley scales and categorised into two groups: Severe Disability\/Death before discharge or Normal\/Mild Disability.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Sixty infants with a median gestation of 27.7 weeks (26.2\u201329.4) and a median birth weight of 1.01 kg (0.86\u20131.22) were followed up to 2 years of age.
