MESENTERIAL CIRCULATION CHARACTERISTICS WITH EARLY ENTERAL FEEDING PRESCRIPTION IN PREMATURE CHILDREN WITH RESPIRATORY SUPPORT
Keywords:
preterm infants, hemodynamics, the upper mesenterial arteryAbstract
The article gives the data about dynamic investigation on blood circulation in the upper mesenterial artery in premature children at severe health condition with needed respiratory support. During the intensive therapy of a premature child in a grave condition, who needs respiratory support, there arise questions about the start time and enteral nutrition administration mode. There are no guidelines on starting and modes of enteral nutrition in children of different weight categories in Ukraine. There is a practice of “hungry pause” in intensive therapy departments, i.e. administration of enteral nutrition after stabilization of the child’s condition. It is due to conflicting data regarding the risk of the development of necrotizing enterocolitis in early enteral feeding of premature infants, which correlates with high lethality. The results say about improving blood flow characteristics and the decreasing of vasoconstriction due to early enteral feeding prescription.
