Nutrition for the Preterm Neonate : A Clinical Perspective
Patole, Sanjay.
Nutrition for the Preterm Neonate : A Clinical Perspective edited by Sanjay Patole. - Dordrecht, Netherlands Springer 2013 - 1 recurso en línea (XIV, 450 páginas) 20 ilustraciones, 10 ilustraciones en color
Developmental physiology of the GIT and feed intolerance -- Enteral nutrition.-Âenteral nutrition -- Catch up growth / Developmental origin of adult diseases -- Monitoring growth and development -- Breast milk, breast feeding, and donor milk banks -- Nutrition in specific conditions.
This book is a collection of state-of-the-art reviews on the various aspects of nutrition for the preterm neonate, by internationally renowned clinicians and researchers from Australia, UK, USA, Canada, and Italy. It provides the scientific basis and clinical perspective on the A to Z of enteral and parenteral nutrition for extremely preterm neonates, making it valuable for all involved in the care of this high-risk population. The topics covered range from the developmental physiology of the gastrointestinal tract, and early trophic feeds, to aggressive enteral and parenteral nutrition, and feeding under special conditions such as intrauterine growth restriction and chronic lung disease. Survival of extremely preterm neonates has improved significantly following the advances in neonatal intensive care. Extrauterine growth restriction is recognised as a serious and almost universal issue in this population. Considering the long term consequences of nutritional deficit and poor growth (e.g. neurodevelopmental impairment, short stature and metabolic disorders), optimising nutrition in the early postnatal life of the preterm neonate is crucial. However this is easier said than done considering the frequency of feed intolerance, fear of necrotising enterocolitis, and the hesitancy in adopting an aggressive approach to parenteral nutrition in this population. The simple and practical approach of this comprehensive and unique book makes it a must read for clinicians as well as researchers involved in neonatal intensive care. It is a useful resource for trainees in neonatology, paediatric gastroenterology, and neonatal nursing, and also for dieticians specialising in neonatal nutrition. Key features and content: ·ÂÂÂÂÂĥvelopmental physiology of the gastrointestinal tract ·ÂÂÂÂÂstematic review of the evidence in various aspects of nutrition for the preterm neonate ·ÂÂÂÂÂŶidence-based practice in nutrition for the preterm neonate ·ÂÂÂÂÂõrrent gaps in knowledge and directions for further research
