Muttermilch als Vektor für infektiöse Erkrankungen – Praktische Aspekte

Muttermilch ist die empfohlene Nahrung für Neu- und Frühgeborene. Die Vorteile angereicherter Muttermilch im Vergleich zu einer künstlichen Frühgeborenennahrung sind eindeutig belegt. Die beschriebene Übertragung bakterieller und viraler Erkrankungen belegt jedoch ebenfalls die Bedeutung von Muttermilch als möglichen Vektor für infektiöse Erkrankungen. Dieser Beitrag diskutiert infektiologische Risiken von Muttermilch für Frühgeborene.
