Effect of Vitamin D in Diets of Preterm Infants
Premature InfantsVitamin DPlacebo
brief summary
Transitional formulas (22 kcal/oz) are recommended for infants less than 35 weeks gestation at birth. However, few data are available related to follow-up of infants receiving these formulas who were 28-34 weeks gestation at birth. Primary hypothesis: Provision of supplemental vitamin D to a transitional formula will lead to higher serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OHD) levels and no infant with a serum 25-OHD less than 20 ng/mL when assessed at approximately 52 weeks post-menstrual age (PMA).
