Objective: Previous studies suggest that darbepoetin might stimulate erythropoiesis in preterm neonates more effectively if injected subcutaneously (s.c.) than if infused intravenously (i.v.). It has been postulated that this is because very high plasma concentrations after i.v. dosing result in urinary loss of the drug. However, this theory has not been tested systematically, and no direct comparisons have been made between s.c. and i.v. dosing of darbepoetin in preterm neonates.Study design: Preterm neonates were eligible for this pilot study if they were born at
