Feeding premature babies
The FEED1 study is a feeding study comparing gradual milk feeds with intravenous fluids (fluids added to veins) / parental nutrition (special food fluids added to veins) vs full milk feeds initiated in the first 24 hours after birth to compare if giving full feeds reduces the length of stay and reduced infection.
Who can take part?
Babies who were born between 30 and 33 weeks were eligible.
