To define the bowel habits of healthy Australian children aged up to 2 years.
One hundred and forty children were recruited in six age categories with a minimum of 20 children per category. Data on bowel habit was recorded by parents daily for 1 week.
Stool frequency decreased with age. Ninety-five per cent of infants 0-14 days passed more than two stools per day compared with 21% at age 13-24 months. Breastfed infants passed more frequent and looser stools than children fed infant formula and solids and also showed a wider variation in frequency.
Mean stool frequency decreased with age as did the variation. This is a combined effect of age and feed type. These data can be used as a guide to the bowel habit of healthy Australian children.
确定2岁及以下健康澳大利亚儿童的排便习惯。
招募了140名儿童,分为六个年龄组,每组至少20名儿童。家长每天记录一周的排便习惯数据。
排便频率随年龄增长而降低。0至14天的婴儿中,95%每天排便超过两次,而13至24个月大的儿童中这一比例为21%。母乳喂养的婴儿比食用婴儿配方奶粉和固体食物的儿童排便更频繁、更稀,且排便频率的变化范围也更大。
平均排便频率和变化范围均随年龄增长而降低。这是年龄和喂养方式共同作用的结果。这些数据可作为澳大利亚健康儿童排便习惯的参考。
