Background and Purpose: Preterm infants are born before the 37th gestational week and need prompt nutrition. The circadian rhythm is an internal 24-hour cycle regulated by endogenous molecules. Human milk contains different biological peptides at different times within this cycle. Chrononutrition is a feeding model that is adjusted to match the biological clock of the individual. This study tests chrononutrition as a superior feeding model in preterm infants. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the chronobiological feeding model on growth parameters and discharge time among preterm infants.
