Background: Withholding enteral feedings during hypothermia lacks supporting evidence. Objectives: We aimed to determine if minimal enteral nutrition (MEN) during hypothermia in patients with hypoxic-ischernic encephalopathy was associated with a reduced duration of parenteral nutrition, time to full oral feeds, and length of stay, but would not be associated with increased systemic inflammation or feeding complications. Methods: We performed a pilot, retrospective, matched case-control study within the Florida Neonatal Neurologic Network from December 2012 to May 2016 of patients who received MEN during hypothermia (n = 17) versus those who were not fed (n = 17). Length of stay, feeding-related outcomes, and brain injury identified by MRI were compared. Serum inflammatory mediators were measured at 0-6, 24, and 96 h of life by multiplex assay, MRI were scored using the Barkovich system. Results: MEN subjects had a reduced length of hospital stay (mean 15 +/- 11 vs. 24 +/- 19 days, p < 0.05), days receiving parenteral nutrition (7 +/- 2 vs. 11 +/- 6, p < 0.05), and time to full oral feeds (8 +/- 5 vs. 18 +/- 18, p < 0.05). MEN was associated with a significantly reduced serum IL-12p70 at 24 and 96 h (p < 0,05), Brain MRI scores were not significantly different between groups. Conclusion: MEN during hypothermia was associated with a reduced length of stay and time to full feeds, but did not increase feeding complications or systemic inflammation. (C) 2018 S Karger AG, Basel
