Combined use of early micro-feeding and intravenous nutrition in low birth weight infants / 肠外与肠内营养

ABSTRACT

Objectives:To observe the role of combined use of early micro feeding and intravenous nutrition in low birth weight(LBW) infants. Methods:Fifty four cases of LBW infants were randomly divided into two groups.Early micro feeding and intravenous nutrition were given in one group(EF & IN group) and another group(Control group) was given only with intravenous nutrition.The times of intravenous nutritional support requirement and hospital stay,the increase in body weight and the changes in serum bilirubin,lipids and creatinine were compared between the two groups. Results:The times of intravenous nutritional support and hospital stay were shortened and the body weight was increased in EF & IN group. The levels of serum bilirubin and creatinine and the serial concentrations of lipids on the day 7 and 14 after birth were significantly lower than those in control group. Conclusions:The combination of early,micro feeding and intravenous nutrition is superior to the only use of intravenous nutrition in shortrenning the critical course,increasing the body weight,beginning the oral intake and decreasing the possible injuries from total parenteral nutrition.
