Abstract
Aim: to assess efficacy of studied milk formulas in nutrition of infants living under conditions of orphanages. Patients and methods: 70 inmates of a certain orphanage aged 1,4–3,6 years old were divided into 2 groups. Children of the observation group (n =25) were fed with 150 ml of «Children milk with prebiotics» twice a day. Comparative group (n =25) received 150 ml of cow milk twice a day. The studied population was characterized by constantly changing number of patients, this difficulty led to decrease of duration of feeding with «Children milk with prebiotics» from 1 month to 24 days. Efficacy control of nutrition at the beginning and in 24 days of feeding with this milk formula was assessed according to anthropometric indexes, laboratory data and symptoms of functional gastro-intestinal disorders. Results: it was shown that including of studied formulas enriched with vitamins, microelements and containing lower percentage of proteins into the children diet instead of cow milk contributes to accelerated growth and development of infants, arresting of symptoms of functional digestive disturbances, improvement of the results of the red blood and faeces analyses. Conclusions: nutrition of orphan children with diseases of central nervous system and a number of other disorders, among them functional disturbances of gastro-intestinal tract, it is necessary to include the afore-mentioned milk formulas, which are indicated to such children also with medicinal aim.
