Summary of findings table ‐ routine monitoring vs no routine monitoring of gastric residual

Number of infants with feed interruption episodes (lasting ≥ 12 hours) · preterm infants

Summary of findings table ‐ routine monitoring may leads to higher number of infants with feed interruption episodes (lasting ≥ 12 hours) compared with no routine monitoring of gastric residual (low certainty).

Continuous glucose monitoring system vs intermittent modalities

All‐cause mortality during initial hospitalization ‐ not reported · infants at risk of hypoglycaemia or hyperglycaemia

It is very uncertain whether summary of findings table ‐ Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) changes death during initial hospitalization (all‐cause mortality) compared with intermittent modalities (very low certainty).
