Intended use
In combination with a Medela disposable hospital
bottle, Calmita is intended to be used for oral
feeding of human milk, fortified human milk
or formula to preterm and term infants when
breastfeeding is not possible.
Calmita allows infants to apply their natural feed-
ing behaviour (sucking and swallowing, breathing
and pausing), thereby supporting and protecting
breastfeeding.
