Overview

Prospective cohort study reports a 36.7% incidence of hypophosphatemia in preterm neonates, indicating risks like extended intubation and higher sepsis incidence.

Key Points

  • Hypophosphatemia incidence was found to be 36.7% in preterm neonates receiving total parenteral nutrition.
  • Patients with hypophosphatemia had a longer duration of intubation, indicating severe respiratory challenges.
  • Sepsis incidence was significantly higher among preterm infants with hypophosphatemia, suggesting increased susceptibility.
  • High amino acid intake among the infants was significantly associated with the occurrence of hypophosphatemia.
