Comparison of Continuous and Intermittent Feeding Methods in Low Birth Weight Infants
Objective About 1 % of infants are of very low birth weight. However, they comprise about 50% of infant mortality. We compare the effects of continuous versus intermittent feeding on physical growth, gastrointestinal tolerance and macronutrient retention in low birth weight infants (Methods A prospective randomized trial clinical trial was performed from 2004-2005. Very low birth weight neonate...

OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that continuous gastric infusion (CGI) is better tolerated than intermittent gastric bolus (IGB) in small very low birth weight (VLBW) infants. DESIGN Two-center, prospective, randomized, unmasked clinical trial. PATIENTS 28 VLBW infants (birth weight <1250 g). A strict feeding protocol was followed. INTERVENTION Patients were randomized to IGB or CGI. M...
متن کاملProphylactic oral probiotic on prevention of feeding intolerance in Very Low Birth Weight (VLBW) neonates: Randomized Clinical Trial
Background: Feeding intolerance is prevalent in very low birth weight (VLBW) neonates and is a barrier for better and faster growth in these neonates. Some studies have supported the administration of oral probiotic to decrease feeding intolerance. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of probiotic on feeding intolerance in VLBW neonates. Methods: This randomized clinical trial st...
متن کاملA prospective randomized trial of feeding methods in very low birth weight infants.
OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that very low birth weight infants fed by continuous nasogastric gavage (CNG) would achieve full enteral feedings (100 kcal/kg/d) at an earlier postnatal age and have less feeding intolerance (FI) than infants fed by intermittent bolus gavage (IBG). METHODS Eighty infants were stratified by birth weight (700 to 1000 g and 1001 to 1250 g) and randomized into CN...
