No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of the trial is to learn if targeted sodium supplementation (including blood and urine sodium testing) versus standard milk fortification (including blood sodium testing) improves growth and body composition in very preterm infants?

Conditions

  • Very Preterm and Extremely Preterm Birth

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Urine sodium testing

The investigators will utilize urine sodium testing every two weeks in conjunction with serum sodium testing to determine if sodium supplementation is indicated.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Serum sodium testing

The investigators will use serum sodium testing to determine if sodium supplementation or adjustments to sodium supplementation need to be made.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Milk fortification

The investigators will provide milk fortification using either a bovine-based or a human-milk-based fortifier (per unit protocol), based on growth trajectories.
