“…Pridham et al 51 explored the level and variation in feeding skill performance in 45 preterm infants at 1, 4, 8 and 12 months' postterm age using the Child Feeding Skills Checklist. They found that feeding skill performance varied widely among infants at all four assessments.…”

Preterm infants often have difficulties in learning how to suckle from the breast or how to drink from a bottle. As yet, it is unclear whether this is part of their prematurity or whether it is caused by neurological problems. Is it possible to decide on the basis of how an infant learns to suckle or drink whether it needs help and if so, what kind of help? In addition, can any predictions be made regarding the relationship between these difficulties and later neurodevelopmental outcome? We searched the literature for recent insights into the development of sucking and the factors that play a role in acquiring this skill. Our aim was to find a diagnostic tool that focuses on the readiness for feeding or that provides guidelines for interventions. At the same time, we searched for studies on the relationship between early sucking behavior and developmental outcome. It appeared that there is a great need for a reliable, user-friendly and noninvasive diagnostic tool to study sucking in preterm and full-term infants.

WHAT'S KNOWN ON THIS SUBJECT:For mothers of children with chronic medical conditions or disabilities, such as epilepsy or cerebral palsy, a history of maternal unresolved grief regarding the child's diagnosis has been associated with insecure infantmother attachment. WHAT THIS STUDY ADDS:Unresolved grief related to a preterm birth is associated with the development of insecure infantmother attachment. Mothers with resolved grief after preterm birth are 2.9 times as likely to have securely attached infants, compared with mothers with unresolved grief. abstract OBJECTIVE: This study explored the association between mothers' unresolved grief regarding their infant's preterm birth and infant-mother attachment security. We hypothesized that mothers with unresolved grief would be more likely to have insecurely attached infants at 16 months and that this association would be partially mediated by maternal interaction quality. METHODS:This longitudinal study focused on 74 preterm infants (age of Ͻ36 weeks) and their mothers who were part of a larger study of high-risk infants. The present analysis included assessment of neonatal and socioeconomic risks at NICU discharge; maternal depression, Reaction to Preterm Birth Interview findings, and quality of parenting at a postterm age of 9 months; and infant-mother attachment at postterm age of 16 months. Associations among findings of grief resolution with the Reaction to Preterm Birth Interview, quality of parenting interactions, and attachment security were explored by using relative risk ratios and logistic and multivariate regression models. RESULTS:The relative risk of developing insecure attachment when mothers had unresolved grief was 1.59 (95% confidence interval: 1.03-2.44). Controlling for covariates (adjusted odds ratio: 2.94), maternal feelings of resolved grief regarding the preterm birth experience were associated with secure infant-mother attachment at 16 months. Maternal grief resolution and interaction quality were independent predictors of attachment security. CONCLUSION:Maternal grief resolution regarding the experience of preterm birth and the quality of maternal interactions have important implications for emerging attachment security for infants born prematurely.

“…The literature emphasizes that, depending on the degree, prematurity might be associated with other risk factors, such as respiratory distress syndrome, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, peri/intraventricular hemorrhage, neonatal sepsis, among others 1,16,17 , causing a variety of clinical manifestations that influence on the sequential phases of the swallowing process [18][19][20][21] , which was observed in this study.…”

“…According to reports in the literature 16 , infants with risk factors for neuropsychomotor impairment may experience difficulties in bolus manipulation, increased transit time of food to the posterior part of the oral cavity and of the muscular action that transports the bolus from the oral cavity to the esophagus, resulting in disorders in both the oral and/or pharyngeal phases.…”

OBJETIVO:descrever as alterações funcionais da deglutição em bebês de risco para o desenvolvimento neuropsicomotor.MÉTODOS: utilizou-se estudo do tipo individuado, observacional e referência temporal transversal. A amostra constituiu-se de 83 crianças, com idade cronológica entre zero e 36 meses. Para análise estatística foram realizados o Teste de Igualdade de duas proporções e o Teste Exato de Fisher.RESULTADOS: dentre os resultados, verificou-se que todos os bebês apresentaram alterações funcionais na sequência da deglutição. No que concerne aos fatores de riscos, constatou-se a prematuridade como maior prevalência (40,7%), acompanhada em ordem decrescente por hipóxia neonatal (35,2%), síndrome do desconforto respiratório (25,9%), convulsão (22,2%), sepse (18,5%) e hemorragia peri-intraventricular (7,4%). As alterações funcionais da deglutição mais encontradas durante a avaliação clínica foram escape anterior (71%) e tosse (72,5%) para a consistência líquida. Na consistência pastosa, foram observados escape anterior (76,9%), tosse (64,1%) e aumento do tempo do trânsito oral (56,4%). Os achados nasofibrolaringoscópicos encontrados foram escape posterior do alimento para a faringe (78,6%), atraso do início da deglutição faríngea (57,1%), estase em valéculas (7,1%), estase em recessos piriformes (7,1%), penetração laríngea (21,4%) e alteração de sensibilidade laríngea (14,3%). Na relação dos fatores de risco para o desenvolvimento e as alterações da deglutição, detectaram-se comprometimentos de fase oral e fase faríngea.CONCLUSÃO:existe uma associação entre os fatores de riscos para o desenvolvimento neuropsicomotor e as alterações funcionais da deglutição.
