Official title
Breast-Milk Enema Administration to Stimulate Meconium Passage in Preterm Infants
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Lack of passage of meconium in preterm infants delays feeding advancement and may represent a risk factor for necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and spontaneous intestinal perforation (SIP). Usual management of meconium impaction has included glycerin suppositories and normal saline enemas. Various methods are used in routine neonatal care to promote meconium evacuation; however, there is no consensus on the agents used and the frequency of applications
