Moreover, progress in the treatment of many life-threatening diseases requires more and more sophisticated techniques of feeding mat are independent of the oral route and allow tor the long-termmaintenance of a well-balanced nutritional status or provision of selected nutrients. Nutrition is also essential in the care of infants born prematu rely and with a low birth weight. In these children the evaluation of nutritional requirements is still in progress, so that the composition of the formulas for their nourishment must be submitted to closer scrutiny.
