Preterm Infants Fed Cows Milk-Derived Fortifier Had Adverse Outcomes Despite a Base Diet of Only Mothers Own Milk

摘要

An increasingly common practice is to feed preterm infants a base diet comprising only human milk (HM), usually fortified with a cow's milk (CM)-derived fortifier (CMDF). We evaluated the safety of CMDF in a diet of 100% mother's own milk (MOM) against a HM-derived fortifier (HMDF). To date, this has received little research attention.
