International survey on enteral nutrition, supplementation and probiotic practices for preterm infants
Compared with our survey from 2010, more NICUs now start feeding preterm infants on day 1, and DHM availability has increased in some countries. Substantial variation remains in the use of BMF, probiotics and CMV screening. A stronger evidence base is needed to update guidelines, aiming ultimately to improve growth and long-term neurodevelopment.
