Introduction: Prenatal corticosteroids reduce neonatal mortality and morbidity; however, there are few studies in developing countries, and with inconsistent results. The purpose of this study was to quantify the frequency of the use of prenatal corticosteroids and to estimate its effect on the morbidity and mortality of premature newborns.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed on premature newborns selected from a census conducted between January 2016 and August 2017.
