Nutritional NeedsEnergy and protein are both important in the

prevention of postnatal growth restriction seen in premature LBW/ VLBW infants

Enteral protein intake needed for optimal growth in preterm infants 3.4-4 gm/kg/d

Example standards for Use of added Protein in NICU settingAll VLBW infants receiving fortified human milk –

added DOL 17-21 (once tolerating full fortified feedings for 5-7 days)

VLBW infants switched to formula feedings with poor linear growth or BUN <15

LBW Infants receiving fortified human milk or formula feedings with poor linear growth or BUN < 15

Preterm infants requiring use of term formula feedings (i.e. Elecare)

Use of human milk fortifiers with increased protein content

Available Protein AdditivesLiquid Protein Fortifier (Abbott)

Extensively hydrolyzedCommercially sterileUsed with both human milk or formulaOnly protein modular that is labeled for use in

preterm and term infantsComplete Amino Acids (Nutricia North America)

Essential and nonessential amino acidsPowdered/ non-sterileUsed with human milk or elemental term formulas

AvailableProtein AdditivesBeneprotein (Nestle)

Whey ProteinPowdered/non-sterileCan be used with human milk or formulasUse in NICU/Pediatrics established despite the

usage statementCommercially available thus can be used for

discharge feeding plans

General usages *Step 1 for human milk

6 mL LPF for every 100 mL of MBM Additional 1 gm protein per 100 kcal

Step 2 for human milk8 mL LPF for every 100 mL of MBMAdditional 1.3 gm protein per 100 kcal

Using LPF with SSC 241-3mL LPF for every 100 mL SSC 24additional 0.2-0.6 gm protein per 100 kcal

* Note, volumes used at TriHealth Good Samaritian Hospital NICU Cincinnati, Ohio

Example Recipes using LPF *Step 1 for human milk

100 mL Expressed human milk + 4 pkts SHMF-CL + 6 mL LPF

Step 2 for human milk100 mL Expressed human milk + 4 pkts SHMF-

CL +8mL LPF Using LPF with SSC 24

100 mL SSC 24 + 1 mL LPF 100 mL SSC 24 + 3 mL LPF

Elecare Fortification / Formula feedings

Using Complete Amino Acid Powder for additional protein

Aiming for same protein content of feedings as when using LPF

Brief History

29 6/7 preterm twin. BW 1440 gm. Trophic feedings of MBM/DBM initiated DOL

Followed VLBW infant feeding protocol

Reached full fortified enteral feedings on DOL 14

Page 11: Trayce Gardner, MEd, RD, CSP, LD. Nutritional Needs Energy and protein are both important in the prevention of postnatal growth restriction seen in premature.

Moving onContinued feedings of MBM 24, mother with

good milk supply (received small amounts of DBM within the first week of life only)

DOL 20rate of wt gain averaging 13.2 gm/kg/d, length up 0.5 cm, HC up 0.5 cm added LPF –step 1

DOL 25rate of wt gain averaging 20.3 gm/kg/d, no change in length, HC up 2 cm

DOL 29BUN had dropped from 21 to 15, nursing reported infant appeared “puffy”

increased LPF –step 2

Almost homeDOL 36Above 2 kg, gaining on average 23 gm/d, length up 2.5 cm, HC up 1

cm.Taking all feeding po, plan to make POAL with shift minimum (140

mL/kg)Changed Feedings to MBM 26 with Neosure powder

DOL 40Averaging 17 gm /d, length up 2 cm, HC up 1 cmAveraging 148-160 mL/kg 100 % poPlan to discharge home within next day
