Abstract

Published evidence has not yielded clear guidelines about the best method of how to feed the preterm baby. Enteral feeding involves many potentially confounding interventions. Variations in nutritional practices are in part explained by difficulties in measuring outcome. Development and implementation of evidence-based nutrition practices led to improved nutrition outcomes.
