MHA Webinar: Introduction to an Exclusive Human Milk Diet, February 24
An Exclusive Human Milk Diet is a nutritional approach for preterm infants that exclusively uses human milk, either mothers’ own milk or donor human mild, along with human milk-based fortifiers. It excludes all cows’ milk-based products, including cow milk-based fortifiers, formula or liquid protein, as well as any nonhuman components such as MCT oil. EHMD is designed to meet the unique nutritional needs of very low birth weight infants while protecting them from serious complications of prematurity and improving long-term outcomes.
Objectives:
Upon completion of this program, participants will be able to:
- List three outcomes that are better in patients who had an EHMD, and
- State two components of human milk that retain bioactivity or bioavailability in human milk-based fortifiers.
Audience:
- Neonatologists,
- NICU nurses and staff,
- Registered dietitians,
- NICU managers,
- Hospital administrators,
- Obstetricians,
- Maternal-fetal medicine specialists,
- Pediatric surgeons,
- Pediatric cardiologists,
- PCICU nurses and staff
