“…The frequency was determined by an estimation, from 7-14% in 1999-2000 period. If the proportion of child-bearing mothers is 2.5% of the total population, there will be 355,000-710,000 low birthweight infants out of 5 million newborn infants (Henderson et al, 2005).…”

Problem statement: To identify demography factor relation that is study, education storey; level, mother age and also social economics status to occurrence of LBW in RSCM Jakarta. Approach: Type this studied is analytic survey with cross sectional design. Population in this studied is all noted mothers bear during year 2006 counted 2.755 with sample equal to 125 mothers. This studied is started in January with intake of sample by random sampling. The data were collected in this studied are secondary data, that is seen data and noted from medical record of RSCM Jakarta Year 2006. Appliance used at this studied is sheet of check list. Data analysis conducted by univariat and bivariate. Results: Statistical test from variable studied that is, study, education, mother age and social economics status, known by that there is relation having a meaning among study of mother, mother age and social economics status with occurrence of heavy baby born to lower in RSCM Jakarta. Conclusion: LBW in RSCM Year equal to 4.54% from 125 mother sample bear.

“…However, Decurtis et al 20 and the Cochrane Database 21 conclude that the evidence is limited that feeding preterm infants after hospital discharge with a calorie and protein-enriched formula (compared to a standard term formula) leads to a higher rate of linear growth and weight gain. 21 The 33 patient Decurtis trial 20 is a 2-month study and is among the six trials 15,16,18,20,22 meeting inclusion in the Cochrane analysis.…”

“…21 The 33 patient Decurtis trial 20 is a 2-month study and is among the six trials 15,16,18,20,22 meeting inclusion in the Cochrane analysis. Based on these six studies they recommend that follow-up of infants participating in the trials might provide further data on the effect of the intervention and growth through later childhood and on later neuro developmental outcomes, also concluded that large randomized controlled trials are needed.…”

Nutrient-enriched diets for preterm infants after hospital discharge (preterm formula or postdischarge formula (PDF)) results in improved growth and these differences appear to persist beyond the period of nutrient intervention. The PDF diet effect is greatest in males, possibly reflecting their higher growth rates. The critical growth epoch appears to be the first 2 months post-term, suggesting a finite period and therefore opportunity for enhanced growth. Whether the observed growth effects persist further or have consequences for other aspects of health or development requires further investigation.

“…21,22 No added benefit of this was noted on neurodevelopment. 23,24 Preterm infants may be transitioned off of highly enriched preterm formula and started on transitional formula at approximately 2,000 g if they are not fluid restricted. Preterm formulas may be used up to 3,000 g. 25 Iron (2 mg/kg/day) should be given as a supplement to preterm infants receiving unfortified human milk up until age 12 months, 7 but supplementation with multivitamins is controversial.…”

Despite a decreasing trend in premature births, greater numbers of infants born at the limits of viability are surviving to discharge. Most of these infants have complex medical problems requiring multidisciplinary care. These infants are primarily cared for by the general pediatrician, but their needs are quite different from those of a full-term healthy newborn. The paucity of data regarding care for these infants complicates their management after hospital discharge. In this article, the authors present the most current evidence-based practices and provide a guide to the general pediatrician on caring for the complex neonatal intensive care unit graduate.

Calorie and protein-enriched formula versus standard term formula for improving growth and development in preterm or low birth weight infants following hospital discharge

Abstract: The limited available data do not provide strong evidence that feeding preterm or low birth weight infants following hospital discharge with calorie and protein-enriched formula compared with standard term formula affects growth rates or development up to 18 months post-term.
