Metabolic bone disease of prematurity

open access: yesJournal of Clinical & Translational Endocrinology, 2014
Metabolic bone disease (MBD) of prematurity remains a significant problem for preterm, chronically ill neonates. The definition and recommendations for screening and treatment of MBD vary in the literature. A recent American Academy of Pediatrics Consensus Statement may help close the gap in institutional variation, but evidence based practice ...
