“…As a result, the cephalic phase response to digestion is not as stimulated, which can lead to feed intolerance. This was in harmony with (Arafa et al 2021) who reported that average length of time until complete sucking or sniffing among the premature neonates in both groups. Regarding growth parameters, the findings showed that, there were no statistically significant differences during tube feeding initiation regarding growth parameters that become statistically significant during oral feeding initiation between both groups.…”

“…This conclusion may be supported by the observation that the taste and smell of milk may increase salivation, digestion-related enzyme secretion during tube feeding, and the emission of hormones concerned with digestion, including insulin, ghrelin, leptin, and gastrin (Zolotukhin 2012). This was matched with (Arafa et al 2021) and(khodagholi et al 2018) who indicated that the premature in the study group reached full sucking one week earlier than those in control group. Furthermore, it was observed by (Shamsi et al 2014) and(Yildiz et al 2011) that the smell of mother's milk helped premature newborns attain full feeding quickly .…”

Background: Premature neonates have feeding problems due to immaturity; As a result, until they acquire sufficient oral eating abilities, they require continuous enteral feeding. Interventions to enhance feeding outcomes of premature neonates and feeding outcomes is olfactory and gustatory stimulation. The study was aimed to determine the effect of olfactory and gustatory stimulations on premature neonates ' feeding progression and sniffing away feeding tube. Subjects and method: A quasiexperimental research design was used in the present study. Convenience sampling of fifty premature neonates. The study was conducted at Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of Tanta Main University Hospital which affiliated to Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research. Three Tools include: Characteristics of premature neonates, Feeding pattern and intolerance of premature neonates' assessment tool 2018, Growth monitoring and physiological measurement of premature neonates. The result indicated that majority of studied neonates in the study group sniffed away the feeding tube to achieve full sucking in a shorter duration than neonates within the group under control. The study concluded that premature neonates who received olfactory and gustatory stimulation had improved feeding abilities and had faster sniffing away feeding tube to reach full feeding. The study recommended that written guidelines and procedures of the NICU should adopt the olfactory and gustatory stimulations in their care.

Nurses working in neonatal nursery units play a crucial role in assessing the preterm infants feeding readiness cues for initiation of oral feeding and implementing the evidence-based intervention to support the development of feeding skills. Objectives: To assess the effect of educational intervention on neonatal nurses’ practices regarding oral Motor stimulation on early transition from to oral oral feeding in preterm infants. Methods: A quasi-experimental single group study conducted in Children Hospital Lahore from May to July 2023. Pre and post intervention data was collected through the observational checklist from 36 nurses working in Neonatology. Nurses were educated through PowerPoint presentation and direct demonstration on infants. Results: Descriptive statistics showed that Majority of nurses were having diploma in nursing, 4-10 years’ experience and belonged to 31-45 years age category. In inferential statistics Paired sample t-test revealed that the majority of nurses (100%, n=36) had incompetent practices before training which were improved (91.6%, n=33) after educational intervention with significant p-value<0.05. Conclusions: The nurses who received training revealed competent practices so we conclude that educational intervention was effective to improve the nurses’ practices.
