Abstract:Purpose To propose a methodology for analyzing data generated by an instrument measuring non-nutritive sucking pressure in newborns. Methods An analytical observational study was developed, with a cross-sectional design, considering the data collected from 24 full-term newborns without complications. Three collections from each neonate were analyzed, with duration of 2 minutes and a 2-minute interval between them. The defined parameters were extracted using a program developed in Matlab®. The results were obt… Show more
