  • Title: Nutrition in very very low birth weight infants.
    Author: Adamkin DH.
    Journal: Clin Perinatol; 1986 Jun; 13(2):419-43. PubMed ID: 3087675.
    Abstract:
    The VVLBW infant's limited nutritional reserves, high requirements for normal growth and development, and gastrointestinal immaturity pose a particularly challenging nutritional problem. Given the potential consequences of inadequate or inappropriate nutritional management, we are obligated to make nutrition a high priority in the overall care of VVLBW infants.
