OBJECTIVE. We sought to determine if an association exists between the use of histamine-2 receptor (H2) blockers and the incidence of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) in infants of 401 to 1500 g in birth weight.STUDY DESIGN. Data from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Neonatal Research Network very low birth weight (401 - 1500 g) registry from September 1998 to December 2001 were analyzed. The relation between the diagnosis of NEC (Bell stage II or greater) and antecedent H2-blocker treatment was determined by using case-control methodology. Conditional logistic regression was implemented, controlling for gender, site of birth (outborn versus inborn), Apgar score of < 7 at 5 minutes, and postnatal steroids.RESULTS. Of 11 072 infants who survived for at least 12 hours, 787 (7.1%) developed NEC (11.5% of infants 401 - 750 g, 9.1% of infants 751 - 1000 g, 6.0% of infants 1001 - 1250 g, and 3.9% of infants 1251 - 1500 g). Antecedent H2-blocker use was associated with an increased incidence of NEC (P
