A 100% human milk-based fortifier from Prolacta® Bioscience

Product information

Surgifort® is a human milk–based, human milk fortifier designed to meet the nutritional needs of full-term infants with gastroschisis undergoing surgical procedures. When used as part of an exclusive human milk diet, and added to mother’s own milk or to donor human milk Surgifort fortifier provides an appropriate amount of calories, protein, and minerals* required for the infants to grow and heal post-surgery. It allows nutrients to be delivered in a concentrated form with high calories and low volume.

Surgifort human milk fortifier (HMF) is made exclusively from 100% donor human milk. The product is a concentrated, pasteurized, liquid HMF that contains calories, protein, fat, and carbohydrate derived from donated human milk, with added minerals.*

  • Nutritionally incomplete. Infants require additional vitamins and iron added separately from the product.
  • Available frozen in 125 mL product containers containing 100 mL of concentrated product.

Using Surgifort®

Initiation of enteral feedings and advancement rates should be individualized based on infant’s clinical status, weight, and age. Optimally, mother’s own milk (MOM) and/or donor human milk (DM) should provide a minimum of 20 kcal/fl oz.1 As Surgifort® fortifier is designed to provide variable calories depending on the patient’s needs, when mixed with term human milk, and given at an appropriate volume, you can achieve nutrition that is within the recommendations established by the National Academy of Medicine.2
