View clinical trials related to Feeding Intolerance in Preterm.
Filter by:Preterm infants are at increased risk of developing feeding intolerance due to functional immaturity of their gastrointestinal tract and may lead to discontinuation of enterak feeding. Lactoferrin promotes the growth of probiotic bacteria, stimulates differntiation and proliferation of enterocytes and expression of intestinal digestive enzymes , lead to improvement of feeding intolerance. So we hypothesized that supplementation of bovine lactoferrin would be benificial on feeding intolerance and decrease intestinal permeability in preterm infants with feeding intolerance.
