Instruments for assessing readiness to commence suck feeds in preterm infants: effects on time to establish full oral feeding and duration of hospitalisation. [PDF]

Cochrane Database Syst Rev, 2016
One of the most challenging milestones for preterm infants is the acquisition of safe and efficient feeding skills. The majority of healthy full term infants are born with skills to coordinate their suck, swallow and respiration. However, this is not the case for preterm infants who develop these skills gradually as they transition from tube feeding to

Psychometrics of the Functional Oral Intake Scale for Infants [PDF]

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2019
This study aimed to investigate the reliability and validity of the Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS) for infants. Infants (age, <1 year) who underwent a videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS) were included in this retrospective study.

Achievement of full oral feeding in preterm infants using a nasogastric or an orogastric tube: a randomized comparative study

The Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine
Background The commonly used orogastric tube (OG) is prone to displacement, thus could cause oral irritation, vagal stimulation, and potential delay in successful oral feeding (OF).

Predictors of the inability to achieve full oral feeding in postoperative infants with CHD. [PDF]

Cardiol Young, 2023
AbstractObjectives:Poor oral feeding is a known contributor to growth challenges in neonates with complex CHD who require early surgery. Almost 60% of these infants do not achieve full oral feeding by hospital discharge. This study’s objective was to identify predictors of the inability to achieve full oral feeding by discharge in neonates with complex

Ultrasonographic evaluation of suprahyoid muscle thickness during the transition to full oral feeding in preterm infants. [PDF]

Eur J Pediatr
Abstract The transition to full oral feeding (FOF) is a critical milestone for discharge in preterm infants and reflects the maturation of multiple physiological systems, particularly swallowing-related neuromuscular coordination.

Oral Motor Stimulation, Feeding and Sucking Success in Preterm Infants

, 2023
Objective: Sucking and swallow dysfunction are common complications in preterm infants that cause oral feeding difficulties. Achieving oral feeding as early as possible is beneficial for preterm infants.
