Popis: | This study aimed to evaluate jaundice outcomes of low-birthweight premature infants commenced on earlier versus later nutrient supplementation (80 mL/kg/day vs. 160 mL/kg/day total fluid intake, F80 vs. F160). Demographics, feeding regimens, and clinical outcomes data were collected. Infant and maternal characteristics were similar. Earlier nutrient supplementation was associated with multiple improved jaundice outcomes: total (TSBR), unconjugated and conjugated (CSBR) serum bilirubin values (196 ± 46 vs. 228 ± 52, 184 ± 44 vs. 212 ± 50, 12 ± 4 vs. 16 ± 5, respectively, all p < 0.001) phototherapy (39% vs. 64%, p < 0.0001). % CSBR/TSBR ratio was similar between groups. For those on phototherapy, duration and median irradiance were similar. F80 infants experienced reduced: feeding intolerance (26.0% vs. 45.2%, p = 0.007) length of stay (16.0 ± 0.64 vs. 18.8 ± 0.74 days, p = 0.03), maximum weight loss as % birth weight (5% vs. 6%, p = 0.03) decrease in weight Z-score at 10 days (&minus 0.70 ± 0.03 vs. &minus 0.79 ± 0.03, p = 0.01). F80 infants regained birthweight earlier (10.0 ± 0.3 days vs. 11.5 ± 0.3 days, p < 0.0001) and had no differences in adverse clinical outcomes. We speculate that earlier nutrient supplementation improved jaundice outcomes due to enhanced excretion/elimination of bilirubin. |
