Abstract (English): The choice of the correct nutritional formula is the most important phase when establishing enteral nutrition. Given that children's energy and protein requirements are not the same as those in adults, there are different formulations adapted to the pediatric stage and within this, to different age groups. Furthermore, in recent years new types of formulas have been commercialized, as special foods or polymeric formulas for infants. This variety of formulas has allowed us to individualize nutritional support in pediatric patients. The aim of this article is to review, classify and establish the indications for the different formulas available at this time in the Spanish market. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish): La elección de la fórmula es la fase más importante al instaurar la nutrición enteral. Puesto que los requerimientos nutricionales y energéticos del niño no son los mismos que en el adulto, existen diferentes preparados adaptados a la etapa pediátrica y, dentro de ésta, a los distintos grupos de edad. Además, en los últimos años se han comercializado nuevos tipos de fórmulas, como dietas específicas para las enfermedades en la edad pediátrica o dietas poliméricas para lactantes. Esta variedad de preparados nos permite ahora, más que nunca, individualizar la nutrición de nuestros pacientes. El objetivo de este artículo es revisar, clasificar y establecer las indicaciones para las distintas fórmulas existentes actualmente en el mercado español. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
