Abstract
Establishing enteral nutrition after the birth of preterm infants presents numerous challenges, particularly for those in special situations. Various disease factors and medical interventions impede the establishment of enteral feeding, leading to conflicts and controversies regarding feeding goals, feeding methods, and the challenges and solutions faced by these infants. A critical issue for clinical physicians is how to safely and promptly establish enteral nutrition to achieve full enteral feeding as quickly as possible. The consensus formulation working group, based on both domestic and overseas research, adopted the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation, and formed an expert consensus on enteral nutrition management for preterm infants in special situations. This consensus provides 14 recommendations for 9 common special situations, aiming to offer guidance on enteral nutrition management for preterm infants to improve their short and long-term outcomes.
