Enteral Feeding and Early Gut Colonization of Preterm Infants — PRECOL  

Premature Birth of Newborn Clinical Trial

Official title:
Potential Role of the Enteral Feeding Systems on Early Bacterial Gut Colonization of Preterm Infants

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the potential role of the enteral feeding systems on the bacterial colonization of premature infants during their NICU admittance and its evolution after 2 years, which is the age when the infant's gut starts to contain an adult-like microbiota.

Clinical Trial Description

First spontaneously evacuated meconium and fecal samples were collected by the medical staff of the Hospital weekly from the diapers of the infants during their stay at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

To evaluate the potential role of the enteral feeding systems as a site for colonization by nosocomial bacteria, and, its impact on early gut colonization of preterm neonates, mother's own milk, donor milk and preterm formula samples were obtained after passing through the external part of the enteral feeding tubes and cultured.

Later, when the infants reached 2 years of age, parents were contacted by phone to provide an additional fecal sample if their infants had not taken antibiotics within the previous 2 months. ;
