Oxygen saturation to fraction of inspired oxygen ratio in preterm infants on routine parenteral nutrition with conventional or fish oil containing lipid emulsions

Introduction The benefits of intravenous (IV) fish oil (FO), as a source of n‐3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, on lung growth in preterm infants, remain controversial. Aim To evaluate if IV FO improves lung growth in small preterm infants on routine parenteral nutrition (PN). Materials and...

Summary:Introduction The benefits of intravenous (IV) fish oil (FO), as a source of n‐3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, on lung growth in preterm infants, remain controversial. Aim To evaluate if IV FO improves lung growth in small preterm infants on routine parenteral nutrition (PN).
