Introduction: Most recent clinical reports from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) concluded current evidence does not support routine universal administration of probiotics to preterm infants, particularly those with birth weight <1000 grams. Despite this, the use of probiotics is increasing in US neonatal intensive care units (NICU). Objectives: Collaborating with the Perinatal Neonatal Medicine of AAP, we conducted a national survey to obtain neonatologist opinion on probiotics use. Methods: Survey questionnaires were sent to 3000 neonatologists via email. Results: Of 3000 potential respondents, 249 (8.3 %) completed the survey. Seventy-five (30%) neonatologists working in 23 different NICUs reported using probiotics in their practice, while 168 (70%) neonatologists working in 54 different NICUs reported not using probiotics. Of those not currently use probiotics, 49% indicated they would consider using probiotics in the future vs. 12% indicating they would not use probiotics. The most common indication for probiotics use was average gestational age < 32 weeks and mean birth weight < 1500 grams. Probiotics were discontinued at mean gestational age of 35 weeks. Respondents who prescribe probiotics were more likely to work in a setting without fellowship or residency training (48% vs 20%). Probiotics users were more often from the West (29 % vs 7%) and less often from Northeast (5% vs 34%) compared to non-users. The proportion of those using probiotics did not significantly differ by NICU size, NICU level, or years working in a NICU. Similac Tri-Blend, Evivo, and Culturelle were the top three probiotics used in the respondent's NICU. Conclusion: Though a majority of respondents are not currently using probiotics in their NICU, a large number of nonusers are interested in using probiotics in the future. Differences continue to exist in the brand of probiotics used in US NICUs.
