Abstract
Pediatricians caring for preterm infants at the beginning of the 20th century faced the daunting challenge of providing nutritional support for their patients, who were surviving at increasing numbers because of the introduction of neonatal incubators. In a few decades, several key innovations followed. These included tube feeding, human milk banking systems, infant formulas, and, in the late 1970s through the 1980s, continuous intravenous nutrition.
