Core Tip |
Nutritional supplementation in neonates is common in neonatal units, but there is no clear United Kingdom guidance. This study set out to ascertain United Kingdom practice with a national cross-sectional study with reference to Euro-pean society of Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepato-logy and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) nutritional guidance. Fifty-five percent of the 174 units in the country were contacted. There was variation in use of all supplements. Comparison to ESPGHAN guidance suggests issues with both underdoing of Breast Fed infants and overdosing of preterm infants on several artificial formulas which already contain significant amounts of nutritional elements. National policies which take international guidance into account are recommended, with similar research needed in other countries.
