What is the actual material you are feeding? Is it formula, tube feeds or other types of nutrition?Is it going to his stomach via a tube? Or in an IV?Lots of inconsistencies in the post. Regardless best person to ask is the manufacturer of the feeds.
How long can formula milk be run through an IV without spoiling?6 months old male Continuous feedI asked in r/nursing when milk goes bad and they immediately closed it and said ask a doctor for medical advice so here I am.Our son was in hospital for 5 months on continuous feed 20 hours a day in 4 hour chunks. We've continued that cadence now he's home and he's currently getting 180ml every 4 hours for 20 hours with a 4 hour break, but we now have a student nurse who watches him during the night while she studies. She's feeding him 360ml in 8 hour chunks which we were under the impression would be a bad idea as formula at room temperature for this long would spoil - is that correct?When I Google it it says formula can't be at room temp for longer than 2 hours which would mean he's been fed incorrectly since birth so just looking for a bit of clarity on how long you would run a continuous feed for in hospital before swapping the bags out so that we're not feeding him bad milk.
