Abstract:
Objective To study the effect of different breast milk enhancement strategies and the incidence of complications in premature infants.Method Premature infants whose gestational age less than 34 weeks and birth weight less than 2 000 g were prospectively enrolled from January 2017 to February 2018 at the Department of Neonatology of Huangshi Maternal and Child Health-Care Hospital.According to the odd even number at the end of the hospitalization admission number,participants were assigned into 50~<70 ml/(kg· d) group and 70~<90 ml/(kg· d) group,When the children reached the corresponding amount of breast-feeding to be given breast milk fortifier.The demographic information,incidence of complications,rate of weight gain,percentage of extrauterine growth retardation (EUGR) and decrease of Z score at discharge were compared between groups.Result A total of 140 cases were included,with gestational age (31.4±1.9) weeks and birth weight (1 402±213) grams.Among the participants,67 infants were assigned to 50~<70 ml/(kg·d) group,and 73 infants were assigned to 70~<90 ml/(kg·d) group.There was no statistical difference between two groups in gender,gestational age,birth weight,length,head circumference,rates of asphyxia,ratio of intrauterine growth retardation,Z score of weight at birth,age at which breast milk fortifiers were added,full enteral feeding time,duration of parenteral nutrition,average length of hospital stay and the time of restoration of birth weight (P>0.05).The proportion of feeding intolerance in 50~ <70 ml/(kg· d) group was higher than that in 70~<90 ml/(kg· d) group (11.9% vs.4.1%),the difference was statistical significant (P=0.013).There was no statistical difference in other complications between the two groups (P> 0.05).The body weight increase rate of premature infants in 50~<70 ml/ (kg· d) group was higher than that in 70~<90 ml/(kg· d) group,and decrease of Z score at discharge in 50~<70 ml/(kg· d) group was lower than that of 70~<90 ml/(kg· d),the difference was significant (P<0.05).Conclusion Adding breast milk fortifier earlier——when the breast feeding amount of 50~<70 ml/(kg· d)——is more beneficial to the growth and development of premature infants,it also reduces the incidence of EUGR on discharge.However,during the feeding process,it was necessary to be aware of the complications.
