Caloric Requirements

The goal of feeding regimens for low-birth-weight infants is to obtain a prompt postnatal resumption of growth to a rate approximating intrauterine growth because this is believed to provide the best possible conditions for subsequent normal development. This statement reviews current opinion and practices as well as earlier reviews1-5 of the feeding of the low-birth-weight infant. Caloric Requirement The basal metabolic rate of low-birth-weight infants is lower than that of full-term infants during the first week of life, but it reaches and exceeds that of the full-term infant by the second week. Daily caloric requirements reach 50 to 100 kcal/kg by the end of the first week of life and usually increase to 110 to 150 kcal/kg in subsequent active growth. A partition of the daily minimum energy requirements is shown in Table I.6 There are considerable variations from these average values, depending on both biological and environmental factors. Infants who are small for gestational age tend to have a higher basal metabolic rate than do premature infants of the same weight.7 The degree of physical activity appears to be a characteristic of the individual infant. Environmental factors may have a greater influence than biological variation in determining the total caloric requirements. The maximal response to cold stress can increase the resting rate of heat production up to 2½ times.6Calories expended for specific dynamic action and for fecal losses are dependent on the composition of the milk or formula fed, as well as on individual variations in absorption of

Second Line

Having read "Correlates of Low Birth Weight: Psychological Status at Six to Seven Years of Age" by Weiner et al. in the March, 1965, issue of Pediatrics, perhaps the psychological stage was set for pseudo-psychological hypophesizing. I know for a fact that many individuals reading the Summary of the article completely misread the second line. This sentence is printed as: ". . . weight children and 415 full-time children ..." Could the words "full-time" really have been an error? Could the authors, editors, and printers of Pediatrics have forgotten the use of the words "full-term"? Obviously not! "Full-term" as a descriptive classification of infants is used throughout the paper.
