Protocol summary

Study aim
Comparison of Granulocyte-Colony Stimulating Factor and Erythropoietin by gastric gavage on feeding tolerance in preterm infants
Design
A clinical trial with an intervention group and a control group with 68 samples, one blind, randomized.
Settings and conduct
This study is conducted in the NICU section of the Ayatollah Rouhani Hospital in Babol. These neonatal are divided into two groups (each group of 34 neonate) as follows: When supplementing with the order of the neonatal physician, the supplementary supplement is also prescribed on medical instructions:The first group (intervention) received oral filtration (G-CSF) and the second group (control) received no intervention. The dose of this medicine is as follows: Oral Filtration Oral Ampoule 4/5 micrograms per kg body weight, daily, divided in two steps via gastric gavage. The above medicine starts with intestinal nutrition and is discontinued after a maximum of 10 days. The G-CSF vial is 300 micrograms or 30 million units Neupogen filgrastim) manufactured by Amgen in the Netherlands. Group assignment by random method, which will be determined by the statistician by using computer software pre-defined by the statistician and will be given by the nurse by installing the same labels A and B, and only the infants who are in This patient study is presented for the purpose of acquiring a blinded drug.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Preterm neonate with a gestational age of less than 32 weeks and a birth-weight less than or equal to 1200 gr
Intervention groups
Administration of Oral Filgrastim (G-CSF) in the intervention group to assess the increase in feeding tolerance in preterm infants.control group will not receive any medication
Main outcome variables
Primary outcome: incidence of intolerance to nutrition; time to reach the maximum milk yield. (100 cc/kg/day) (full feed) Secondary outcomes: The time to start weighting; the length of stay in the hospital.
