Abstract
The concept that adequate nutritional status and normal growth are important is well-accepted. How to assess the adequacy of nutrition and how to define appropriate growth remains an area of active debate. Our goal is to review how growth is assessed at birth and during the hospital stay of prematurely born infants, and to offer a standardized approach.Entities:
