    Post-market observational study with formula feeding administered via standard of care

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Parent-reported individual gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and GI-related behaviors

    The Newborn Infant GI Tolerance eDiary will be completed daily (preferably in the evening) by parents, who will document the frequency and severity of diarrhea, gassiness, spitting-up, vomiting, reflux, abdominal pain, fussiness, crying, and sleep patterns using a 6-point scale (from Never to Always). Higher scores indicate more symptoms of GI discomfort.

    Measured: Daily through study completion (age 2 to 5 days)

  2. Parent-reported individual GI- and feeding-related behaviors

    At discharge, parents will complete the Gastrointestinal Tract Function sub-scale of the NeoEAT questionnaire (either the Bottle-Feeding or the Mixed-Feeding version, depending on the mother's chosen feeding mode) to document GI- and feeding-related behaviors using a 6-point scale (from Never to Always). Higher scores indicate more symptoms of GI discomfort and problematic feeding behavior.

    Measured: At study completion (age 2 to 5 days)

  3. Number of infants with specific GI characteristics

    GI symptoms and GI-related behaviors, as documented by health care providers in the infants' hospital medical charts (e.g., diarrhea, constipation, and vomiting)

    Measured: Daily through study completion (age 2 to 5 days)

  4. Number of feeds per day

    Number of formula feeds per day, number of breastfeeds per day (if mixed fed), as documented by health care providers in the infants' hospital medical charts

    Measured: Daily through study completion (age 2 to 5 days)
