This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (Intervention). The objectives are as follows:We aim to assess the benefits and harms of early full enteral nutrition versus progressive introduction of enteral feeds in preterm or low birth weight (LBW) infants.Where data are available, we will undertake subgroup analyses of very preterm or very low birth weight (VLBW) infants (versus infants born a er a longer gestation or with higher birth weight), infants who are 'small for gestational age' at birth (versus those deemed 'appropriate for gestation'), infants fed with human milk only (versus formula-fed infants), and trials set in low-or middle-income countries (versus high-income countries). Early full enteral feeding for preterm or low birth weight infants (Protocol)

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
