Summary

This study aims to compare immunologic parameters of 60 patients who are 1-28 days-aged, below 1500-gram body weight, born before 32 weeks of gestational age and fed with eoprotin or olive-oil fortified breast milk. Cases will receive same amount of calorie intake either with eoprotin or olive oil fortified-breast milk. If investigators identify that olive oil doesn't increase proinflammatory cytokines and grant enough weight gain in premature infants at the end of the study, investigators will suggest olive oil to replace eoprotin which is a very costly breast milk-fortifier.

Conditions

  • Breast Milk Expression
  • Premature Birth of Newborn

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

olive oil

The infants fed with olive oil will have received same amount of calorie with infants who will receive eoprotin-fortified breast milk.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Eoprotin

Low birth weight infants are premature infants that born with birth weight less than 1500 g. Because these infants have low birth weight, weight gain can be increased by fortifying breast milk after post-natal 7 with eoprotin.
