“…Increased survival rate of VLBW infants can be partly attributed to routine practice of central venous catheters (CVCs) placement [1]. The use of CVCs provides an intravenous route for administration of hyperosmolar fluids and medications.…”

“…The risk of sepsis is significant: an incidence of between 4 and 12 cases of sepsis per 1,000 catheter days has been reported, increasing with the duration of catheterization [9] . In the longer term, delayed advancement of enteral feeding may be linked to poorer mental developmental outcome [10] .…”

Background: Feed intolerance delays achievement of enteral feeding in preterm infants. Parenteral nutrition is associated with cholestasis and increased risk of sepsis. Glycerin suppositories have been used to promote gastrointestinal motility and feed tolerance. Objectives: To investigate whether daily glycerin suppositories (a) reduce the time to full enteral feeding in infants born at <32 weeks’ gestation, and (b) influence feed tolerance, incidence of sepsis or necrotizing enterocolitis, duration of oxygen requirement, growth or age at discharge. Methods: Design – prospective open randomized controlled trial; study population – preterm infants stratified into 2 subgroups, 24–27⁺⁶ weeks (24–27 weeks + 6 days) and 28–31⁺⁶ weeks; intervention – daily glycerin suppository for 10 days from 24 h of age, 250 mg (24–27⁺⁶ weeks subgroup) or 500 mg (two 250-mg suppositories; 28–31⁺⁶ weeks subgroup); controls – no intervention. The same feeding protocol and departmental guidelines for other aspects of neonatal intensive care were used in all subjects. Analysis was by intention to treat. Results: 54 babies were recruited (31 males), 29 randomized to receive suppositories; 48 achieved full enteral feeds. The median (range) time to full feeds was 1.6 days shorter in intervention group babies than controls, but not statistically significant: 7.4 (4.6–30.9) days versus 9.0 (4.4–13.3) days (p = 0.780; 95% confidence interval: –1.917, 2.166). No significant differences were observed in secondary outcomes. Intervention group babies passed their first stool earlier than controls (median: day 2 vs. day 4; p = 0.016). Conclusion: Regular glycerin suppositories did not reduce the time to full enteral feeds in infants born at <32 weeks’ gestation in our setting.

“…7 Más allá de las tasas de utilización de ARM obtenidas, similares al NNIS incluso en menores de 1000 g, las dificultades para definir un diagnóstico preciso de neumonía en niños crí-ticamente enfermos, sobre todo en prematuros, pueden estar expresando un subdiagnóstico de esta entidad. 1,24 Nuestra tasa global de IN asociada a catéter es similar a la señalada en la bibliografía, 2,4,7,8,10 incluso la del NISS. 7 En los 3 grupos que corresponden a RN > 1000 g las tasas de infecciones asociadas a catéter se mantuvieron entre los percentilos 25 y 75 publicados por el NISS.…”
