The feeding of 17 babies weighing less than 1500 g was examined retrospectively. 12 babies started breast feeding at a mean weight of 1324 g and 10 of them were fully breast fed by a mean weight of 1600 g. Their weight gains were comparable with bottle-fed babies receiving expressed breast milk. Practical aspects of breast feeding were considered to be: a knowledgeable maternal and nursing atti...
متن کاملEnergy and nitrogen balances in very low birthweight infants.
Energy and nitrogen balances were performed in 12 very low birthweight infants fed on either human milk or on a preterm formula. Energy and nitrogen retention were significantly higher in those given the formula feed (p less than 0.05). Highly significant correlations were found between nitrogen intake and nitrogen retention and between energy retention and nitrogen retention (p less than 0.001...
