The Effect of Non-nutritive Sucking by Mothers on Full Oral Feeding Attainment in Preterm Neonates

open access: yesJournal of Comprehensive Pediatrics, 2018
Objectives: Effective interventions such as non-nutritive sucking (NNS) improve neonatal development. The current study aimed at assessing the effect of NNS intervention by mothers on physiological factors, duration of full oral feeding attainment, and the length of hospital stay.

Effect of vacuum-release teat versus standard teat use on feeding milestones and breastfeeding outcomes in very preterm infants: A randomized controlled trial.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
BACKGROUND:Breast milk is important to infant health, yet shorter breastfeeding duration is reported for preterm infants. Both breast and bottle feeds are given in the neonatal unit, with full oral feeding often the last milestone to be achieved prior to

Oromotor stimulation for transition from gavage to full oral feeding in preterm neonates: A Randomized controlled trial

open access: yesIndian Pediatrics, 2016
To assess the effect of additional oromotor stimulation along with routine care on transition from gavage to full oral feeding in preterm neonates.51 neonates (28-34 weeks) randomized to receive either oromotor stimulation along with routine care (n=25, intervention), or routine care alone (n=26, control) (which included Kangaroo mother care and non ...

Effects of implementing non-nutritive sucking on oral feeding progression and outcomes in preterm infants: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
BackgroundPreterm infants have imperfect neurological development, uncoordinated sucking-swallowing-breathing, which makes it difficult to realize effective oral feeding after birth.

Early discharge with home support of gavage feeding for stable preterm infants who have not established full oral feeds

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews
Many preterm infants otherwise ready for discharge remain hospitalised while they transition from gavage to full sucking feeds. Early discharge of stable preterm infants still requiring gavage feeds may have some benefits: it could reduce separation of parents and infants and reduce costs to the healthcare system and families compared with discharge ...

Cue-Based Oral Feeding Protocols

open access: yes, 2014
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of two feeding protocols. Both feeding protocols included the implementation of oral stimulation, the use of feeding readiness cues, and a quality of nippling scale. Infants were evaluated prior

Postoperative feeding practices and nutritional intake in patients with head and neck cancer undergoing surgery with flap tissue transfer reconstruction: a scoping review

open access: yesBMC Cancer
Introduction Surgery with flap reconstruction is commonly utilised in the treatment of head and neck cancer (HNC). Following surgery, patients are made nil-by-mouth (NBM) and receive enteral tube feeding until they can recommence oral intake.
