Association between early feeding of banana (Musa paradisiaca) and vomiting or abdominal distention in neonates
Keywords:

Abstract
Objective To assess the relationship between banana given asearly solid food feeding and symptoms of intestinal obstruction (SIO)
such as vomiting and abdominal distention among neonates.
Methods A longitudinal cohort study was done in 1993 at a rural
community of West Lombok District on Lombok Island, West Nusa
Tenggara Province, Indonesia. There were 3420 neonates who
were followed up by interviewing their mothers until 28 days after
delivery. The main outcome measure was the occurrence of SIO.
Results Compared to infants who were not given solid food, the
relative risk (RR) of SIO for infants given food other than banana
as early solid food feeding was 1.87 (95%CI 0.48;8.24), while for
infants given banana only as early solid food feeding, the RR was
9.15 (95%CI 1.96;42.58). After the adjustments of birth weight, co-
lostrum, and breast feeding, the odds ratio of SIO for infants given
banana was 2.99 (95%CI 2.65;5.14).
Conclusion Banana as early solid food for neonates feeding is
an important risk factor for the occurrence of SIO
