- Abstract
A rational nutrition is an important constituent of the management of preterm infants with severe cerebral conditions. The paper reviews indications for introducing total or partial parenteral nutrition (PN). Hyperalimentation is an appropriate choice within 10-12 postnatal days which should be later replaced by the "Scandinavian" regimen. The rate and duration of a daily PN regimen should be oriented to the time of glucose infusion. A protocol of partial and total PN is recommended for practical adoption.
