Neonates who undergo enterostomy are at risk of complications that can lead to poor growth, fluid-electrolyte imbalance, and growth abnormalities if the postoperative nutrition is not optimally managed.

This standardized evidence-based guideline for infants with enterostomy presents 22 recommendations for postoperative nutritional management in this high-risk population.
