Oral stimulation techniques in preterm infants e International research challenges
1355-1841/$ see front matter a 201 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jnn.2013 Abstract There has been a significant increase in the survival of preterm infants in recent years. These infants often face difficulty acquiring the complex set of skills required for exclusive oral feeding due to a multiplicity of factors. This paper discusses the theory underlying the use of oral stimulation interventions...
متن کاملThe Effect of Oral Motor Intervention on Oral Feeding Readiness and Feeding Progression in Preterm Infants
Background: Advances in neonatal intensive care have markedly improved survival in preterm infants. These babies need hospitalization due to the immaturity of the respiratory and digestive systems. The timing for the initiation of proper feeding in premature infants admitted to neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) is an important challenge for physicians, parents, and...
متن کاملAssessment for oral feeding in preterm infants.
PURPOSE To assess the accuracy of the Preterm Oral Feeding Readiness Scale (POFRAS) on the beginning of oral feeding in preterm infants and to verify the concordance between this tool and the Oral Feeding Skill Level. METHODS 82 preterm infants were assessed by POFRAS regarding their readiness to initiate oral feeding and by the oral feeding skill level evaluation during the first oral feedin...
متن کاملOral Motor Intervention Improved the Oral Feeding in Preterm Infants
Oral feeding for preterm infants has been a thorny problem worldwide. To improve the efficacy of oral feeding in preterm infants, oral motor intervention (OMI), which consists of nonnutritive sucking, oral stimulation, and oral support, was developed. Published studies demonstrated that OMI may be as an alternative treatment to solve this problem; however, these results remain controversial. We...
متن کاملEffect of multi-sensory stimulation on physiological parameters in preterm infants: randomized clinical trial
Background: Premature infants undergo a lot of stressors during treatment procedures in the neonatal intensive care units which causes significant physiological changes in these neonates. Multi-sensory stimulation is a broad category of interventions designed to improve the evolutionary and physiological outcomes of premature infants hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit to minimize ...
