Brief Summary  

Glucose is the principal substrate for cerebral metabolism, and neonatal hypoglycemia causes damage in neuroglial cells and leads to adverse neurodevelopmental outcome.Approximately 25% of neonates are at risk for neonatal hypoglycemia. Some of these infants fail to normalize blood glucose levels by feed alone and require intravenous dextrose therapy. Preterm infants, small for gestational age (SGA), large for gestational age (LGA), infants of diabetic mothers are at high risk of requiring intravenous dextrose therapy due to persistent hypoglycemia. 

 In this study, we aim to study about the use of oral dextrose gel (40%) in preventing hypoglycemia in at risk neonates which helps in better neurodevelopmental outcome and the use of oral dextrose gel in preventing hospital admission and early initiation of breastfeeding
