The cohort included 203 children aged 3 to 12 months who were born at a gestational age <37 weeks with a body weight <2500 g and had no congenital malformations. It was found that the further growth and psychomotor development of a premature child is affected not only by the pathological conditions of the neonatal period against the background of morpho-functional immaturity, but also by insufficient weight gain and micronutrient deficiency during the first year of life, as a result of irrational nutrition. The level of macro- and microelements in the whole blood of preterm children aged 6 months was determined, and probable zinc deficiency among children with delayed growth was revealed. The current level of awareness of parents and medical professionals regarding the peculiarities of nutrition of preterm children was studied. The treatment scheme for elemental deficiency in preterm born children with the use of a vitamin-mineral complex drug containing zinc and nutritional correction, which has demonstrated its safety and therapeutic effectiveness, was substantiated, and an algorithm for counseling parents was developed.  Product Description popup.authors Herashchenko Yuliia O.
