Summary: "Improvements in perinatal and neonatal care have markedly increased the survival of pre-mature infants during the last two decades. Accordingly, medical care for preterm infants has shifted from a focus on survival to quality of outcome, with considerable evidence showing the nutritional care for preterm infants related to long-term health and quality of life. This book presents guidance for the practical application of nutritional care for these infants, based on a critical evaluation of current clinical and scientific evidence, with a goal of facilitating the daily practice of clinicians and helping to raise the standards of nutritional care for preterm infants around the world"-- Provided by publisher.
