Summary
The overall objective of the proposal is to demonstrate the feasibility of providing increased calories and protein in the first week of life to very low birth weight (VLBW) preterm infants.
Detailed description
Infants will be randomized to receive either standard parenteral nutrition via the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) protocol or enhanced parenteral nutrition via the Study protocol during their first week of life through higher initial macronutrient provision and faster advancement of macronutrient provision.
