Abstract

The use of breast milk presents numerous early and long-term advantages for ELBW preterms. However, breast milk without fortification does not cover the high nutritional needs of such patients. The aim of our study was to assess the effect of individualized fortification of breast milk on the growth of ELBWs hospitalized in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
