Gastric Residual Volume in Feeding Advancement in Preterm Infants (GRIP Study): A Randomized Trial
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of not relying on prefeeding gastric residual volumes to guide feeding advancement on the time to reach full feeding volumes in preterm infants, compared with routine measurement of gastric residual volumes. We hypothesized that not measuring prefeeding gastric residual volumes can shorten the time to reach full feeds.
STUDY DESIGN: In this single-center, randomized, controlled trial, we included gavage fed …
