Cup versus bottle feeding for hospitalized late preterm infants in Egypt: A quasi-experimental study
BACKGROUND Although previous studies have demonstrated beneficial breastfeeding outcomes when cup feeding rather than bottle feeding was used for feeding preterm infants, cup feeding has not been implemented in Egypt. The aim of the current study was to examine the effect of using cup feeding as an exclusive method of feeding preterm infants during hospitalization on breastfeeding outcomes afte...
متن کاملFormula feeding for late-preterm infants
Preterm birth interrupts physiological foetal development, leading to various degrees of immaturity according to the gestational age at which the infant is born [1]. Since 2005, the imprecise definition of “near-term” infants has been replaced with “late-preterm”, which includes infants born between 34 and 36 weeks of gestation [2]. Late-preterm infants are at higher risk than term infants of d...
متن کاملPreterm infants' behavioural indicators of oxygen decline during bottle feeding.
BACKGROUND During the time when preterm infants' oral feeding skills are developing they often experience physiological instability and need assistance from caregivers to maintain adequate oxygenation. Assisting infants to maintain optimal oxygenation during oral feeding requires an understanding of how they express and aim to self-regulate their oxygen status. AIM The purpose of this study w...
متن کاملComparison of the finger-feeding versus cup feeding methods in the transition from gastric to oral feeding in preterm infants.
OBJECTIVES To assess the finger-feeding technique when compared with the cup feeding method during the early stage of preterm infant feeding transition regarding milk loss, milk ingestion period, and complications. METHODS Experimental, randomized, prospective study including 53 preterm infants with gestation age<37 weeks, clinically stable, and with a score of >28 points in the Oral Feeding ...
متن کاملEfficacy of semielevated side-lying positioning during bottle-feeding of very preterm infants: a pilot study.
Very preterm (VP, ≤30 wk gestational age) infants are at risk for impaired lung function, which significantly limits their ability to eat. A semielevated side-lying (ESL) position is a feeding strategy that may improve oral feeding by supporting breathing during feeding. The study evaluated the efficacy of the ESL position compared with the semielevated supine (ESU) position on physiological st...
