摘要: BACKGROUND Preterm infants require special considerations than term to obtain adequate growth. OBJECTIVE The aim was evaluate human milk (HM) in low birth weight premature newborn (LBW-PN) and very (VLBW-PN) during hospitalization, maternal factors, the relationship with nutritional parameters. MATERIAL AND METHODS 87 LBW-PN 82 VLBW-PN), admitted a public hospital Cordoba, Argentina, were included. Anthropometry, food biochemical parameters, child history registered. HM contribution calculated. Anthropometric values, days of hospitalization factors by intake analyzed. RESULTS Only 36,36% VLBW-PN 31,02% had more 20% their diet HM. hemoglobin concentration at discharge higher group (p=0,01). There statistically significant association between amount height PN less A high prevalence cesarean delivery observed, related lower CONCLUSIONS contributes stabilization. Cesarean may be associated infants.
