Cardio-Respiratory Events and Food Autonomy Responses to Early Uni-Modal Orofacial Stimulation in Very Premature Babies : A Randomized, Controlled Study
Abstract:BackgroundThe Uni-modal OroFacial Stimulation (OFS) for preventing very preterm infants’ oral disorders is highly controversial. Our study sought to demonstrate that OFS reduced cardio-respiratory events and improved food autonomy in a population of very preterm infants.MethodsRandomized, controlled, prospective, and unicentric study. Preterm included were born between 26-29 week‘s gestational age (GA) and with a corrected postnatal age <33 week’s GA. They were randomized in two groups: experimental group u… Show more
