Nutrition services in Canadian neonatal follow-up programs.

The benefits of nutrition assessment and support of the high-risk infant are well established. The premature infant remains vulnerable for poor growth and developmental disabilities, thus requiring consistent monitoring, intervention, and follow-up care. The purpose of this study was to determine the registered dietitian's role in neonatal/perinatal follow-up programs.
