Though human milk is widely regarded as optimal nutrition for infants, it may not allow for adequate intake of caloric or protein standards for critically ill infants with gastroschisis. Currently, fortification options for term infants are limited to infant formula or fortifiers designed for preterm infants. Now, these infants in the U.S have a new option- Surgifort. Watch the story of Ray, who recovered from gastroschisis 13 years ago without human milk-based fortifiers— right about the time we started our journey to help patients like them.

A peer-reviewed report shows 5 hospitals using Prolacta’s human-milk based nutritional fortifiers resulted in savings ranging from $500,000 to $3.4 million per NICU annually. Published in BMC Pediatrics, the Swanson 2023 study looked at data reported from US hospitals varying in size, geographic setting, patient population, and funding to assess the benefits of implementing an EHMD program.

In a recent episode from Empowering NICU Parents, our own Dr. Melinda Elliott, Chief Medical Officer at Prolacta Bioscience, shares essential insights every NICU parent and clinician should hear; from skin-to-skin bonding to the powerful role of parental advocacy in shaping care. One takeaway you don’t want to miss: Not all human milk fortifiers are created equal. If it’s not made from 100% donor human milk, it’s not truly human milk. At Prolacta, we’re proud to provide the only human milk-based fortifiers backed by proven clinical outcomes because babies deserve better than cow’s milk in the NICU. Listen to the full podcast to hear why empowered parents and informed clinicians are a NICU team’s greatest strength. https://xmrrwallet.com/cmx.phubs.li/Q03xFqyT0 #Prolacta #NICUStrong #HumanMilkMatters #NICUFeeding #SkinToSkin #NECPrevention #NICUBaby #NICUMom #NICUDad #ParentalEngagement #ParentAdvocacy #NICUPodcast #Breastfeeding #Neonatology
