Neurodevelopmental Outcomes of Extremely Preterm Infants Fed Donor Milk or Preterm Infant Formula: A Randomized Clinical Trial
( JAMA . 2024;331(7):582–591. doi: 10.1001/jama.2023.27693) A large, nationwide, randomized clinical trial examining how donor milk and preterm infant formula affect neurodevelopment in premature infants has found that outcomes in both groups were similar. The double-blinded trial was conducted with 483 participants at 15 academic medical centers in the United States that are part of a National Institute of Child Health Neonatal Research Network. Previous studies have shown that preterm infants fed with maternal milk while hospitalized have better neurodevelopment outcomes.
