Nurses’ Practices for Sensorimotor Stimulation to Enhance Oral Feeding of preterm Infants: An Assessment Study [PDF]

Egyptian Journal of Health Care, 2022
Background: Preterm infants experience feeding problems due to their physiological and neurological immaturity. Sensorimotor stimulation such as oral stimulation, non-nutritive sucking and tactile kinesthetic stimulation are forms of stimulations used to

IgG Fc Glycosylation Patterns of Preterm Infants Differ With Gestational Age

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Preterm infants acquire reduced amounts of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) via trans-placental transfer as compared to term infants which might explain their high susceptibility for infections.

Does birth weight affect neonatal body weight, growth, and physiology in an animal model?

PLoS ONE, 2021
Infant birth weight affects neuromotor and biomechanical swallowing performance in infant pig models. Preterm infants are generally born low birth weight and suffer from delayed development and neuromotor deficits.

Abnormal cortical development after premature birth shown by altered allometric scaling of brain growth. [PDF]

, 2006
BACKGROUND: We postulated that during ontogenesis cortical surface area and cerebral volume are related by a scaling law whose exponent gives a quantitative measure of cortical development.

Feeding the preterm infant

BMJ, 2004
Providing appropriate nutrition for growth and development is a cornerstone of the care of preterm infants. Early postnatal nutrition during this critical period of brain growth may have a substantial impact on clinically important outcomes, including long term neurodevelopment.
