Feed Intolerance With Short Term Use of Commercial Pasteurized Donor Human Milk Versus Preterm Formula in Addition to Mothers Milk: A Retrospective Analytical Study. Indian Pediatrics. 2025 Jan; 62(1): 53-550019-60610974-7559https://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/251356This retrospective study compared the rate of feed intolerance in preterm neonates delivered at £ 30 weeks gesta?on who received pasteurised donor human milk (n = 83) versus preterm formula (n = 41) to meet the deficits in available volumes of mother’s own milk in the first 2 weeks of life. Feed intolerance was not higher in neonates who received preterm formula than those who received pasteurized donor human milk (24.4% vs 20%; OR (95% CI) 0.79 (0.30, 2.19) P = 0.619]. Rates of necro?zing enterocoli?s, culture posi?ve sepsis and mortality were not significantly different in the two groups. The preterm formula group gained birth weight earlier, although the ?me needed to a?ain full feeds was similar in both groups.Human milk bankMother’s own milkNecrotizing enterocolitisJournal ArticleIndiaDepartment of Neonatology, KIMS Health, Trivandrum, Kerala, IndiaDepartment of Neonatology, KIMS Health, Trivandrum, Kerala, IndiaDepartment of Neonatology, KIMS Health, Trivandrum, Kerala, IndiaDepartment of Neonatology, KIMS Health, Trivandrum, Kerala, IndiaDepartment of Neonatology, KIMS Health, Trivandrum, Kerala, India.
