Early nutrition boost for tiny babies: can it improve growth and gut health?
NCT ID NCT05525585
Summary
This study is testing whether adding extra nutrients to breast milk earlier (between days 4-7) helps very premature babies grow better compared to adding them later (days 10-14). Researchers will follow 80 very preterm infants to see if early fortification leads to better body composition and more diverse gut bacteria. The goal is to find the best timing for nutritional support to help these vulnerable infants thrive.
