Clinical observation of very low birth weight infants with early trace depth hydrolyzed protein formula

Objective To study the effect of early trace depth hydrolyzed protein formula and infant formula milk on very low birth weight (VLBW) infants of the gastrointestinal tolerance,growth and development,and provide scientific basis for early enteral feeding VLBW.Methods 126 premature infants with birth weight lower than 1 500 g were randomly divided into observation group (63 cases) and control group (63 cases).On the basis of routine treatment,the observation group was given early trace depth hydrolyzed protein formula,the control group was given early minimal preterm formula milk.We oberserved gastrointestinal tolerance,complications and growth monitoring of two groups.Results Period to regain their birth weight,up to full enteral feeding days of age,hospitalization days,discharge rate of extrauterine growth retardation,the incidence of feeding intolerance,the incidence of neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis,feeding dyspeptic diarrhea incidence in observation group were 12.81 d,25.76 d,37.95 d,23.8％,14.3％,6.3％,3.2％.The data in control group were 16.02 d,27.75 d,45.49 d,42.9％,30.2％,19％,12.7％ respectively.There was significant difference between two groups (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion To carry out early trace depth hydrolysis protein can reduce the risk of the incidence of complications in VLBW infant which has good promotion on the recent growth and suitable for clinical use.
