Comparison of Measured Caloric Expenditure Versus Administered Calories in

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Clinical Trial Summary

The investigators have created and validated a device that allows us to accurately measure how many calories a baby consumes every day. The purpose of this study is to compare how many calories a baby consumes with how many calories are provided in a population of newborn infants and children. This may help clinicians to better understand how to feed babies during times of critical illness.
