Optimal Feeding Tube Dwell Time in VLBW Infants to Reduce Feeding Tube Contamination

Infection Clinical Trial

Official title:
Optimal Feeding Tube Dwell Time in VLBW Infants to Reduce Feeding Tube Contamination

Clinical Trial Summary

The study team will determine whether a decreased feeding tube dwell time will reduce feeding tube contamination

Clinical Trial Description

Contaminated feeding tubes can occur in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and have been associated with significant morbidity. Due to an immature immunologic systems, premature infants are at significant risk of complications related to contaminated feeding tubes. Feeding tube dwell time may affect the level of contamination. This study will determine if a maximum feeding tube dwell time of 48 hours reduces contamination compared to a maximum feeding tube dwell time of 7 days, thereby improving neonatal health outcomes. ;
