What is Saline vs Glycerin for Premature Feeding about?

This pilot randomized controlled trial assessed the feasibility of saline rectal washout (RW) versus glycerin suppositories (GS) to expedite meconium evacuation and promote enteral feeding in very low birth weight infants. Results indicated that RW significantly reduced the time to reach full enteral feeds in the 750-999 g weight stratum, while no efficacy was observed in the 1,000-1,500 g group. The study concluded that RW is safe and warrants further investigation in a larger trial.
