“…Randomized trials have shown reduced morbidity and mortality in preterm infants following the daily application of sunflower seed oil (SSO) in developing countries [5]. Moreover, the neurological maturation of preterm infants was found to improve with a multimodal stimulation technique using a mixture of natural oils (sunflower, rape and grape seed oil) or almond oil [10]. Natural oils like SSO contain the essential fatty acids linoleic acid (ω-6) and α-linolenic acid (ω-3), contributing to skin barrier and neurological development, whereas emollients with high oleic acid content (nonessential fatty acid, ω-9), e.g.…”

Background: Inadequate skin care may increase morbidity in preterm infants. Skin care practices that support skin maturation have barely been investigated. Objectives: To investigate the effect of sunflower seed oil (SSO) on skin barrier development in low-birth-weight premature infants. Methods: 22 preterm infants (<48 h after birth, 1,500-2,500 g) were randomized into group C (control) and group SSO, receiving daily SSO application during the first 10 postnatal days, followed by no intervention. Transepidermal water loss (TEWL), stratum corneum hydration (SCH), skin pH and sebum were measured <48 h after birth and on postnatal days 5, 11 and 21 on the forehead, abdomen, thigh and buttock. Results: Skin pH decreased, while sebum remained stable in both groups. In group C, TEWL remained stable; in group SSO, TEWL increased significantly on the abdomen, leg and buttock until day 11, followed by a decrease after SSO application had been stopped. Abdomen SCH remained stable in group C, but continuously decreased in group SSO until day 21. Conclusion: SSO application may retard postnatal skin barrier maturation in preterm infants.

“…The studies identified for inclusion were narrowed down to full text articles written in English. Studies that compared the effectiveness of different massage oils were excluded; this was because massage oil brought out concerns, such as allergic reactions and a change of triglyceride and fatty acid profile [9,10]. A total of 12 articles were selected by two independent reviewers ( Figure 1) [3,6,8,[11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19].…”

Despite the increase in the survival rate of preterm and low birth weight (LBW) infants through the provision of high-technology neonatal care, the potential mortality and morbidity faced by these infants remain a concern. The morbidity and mortality rates of infants are inversely proportional to their birth weight and gestational age. Therefore, promoting infant weight gain reduces preterm infant morbidity. Clinical trials have suggested that infant massage provided by parents or therapists can promote weight gain, increase vagal activity and gastric motility in preterm LBW infants. No adverse reaction of infant massage is reported. As such, the application of an evidence-based guideline to clinical practice can help healthcare professionals provide high-quality care to preterm infants and thus produce better health outcomes. This paper presents the development of an evidence-based guideline for preterm infant massage. The challenges involved in implementing this evidence-based guideline are identified, and strategies for tackling these challenges are discussed. This guideline provides a model of care in the neonatal clinical setting.

The effect of multimodal stimulation and cutaneous application of vegetable oils on neonatal development in preterm infants: a randomized controlled trial

Abstract: The combination of STM and cutaneous application of oils to healthy preterm babies resulted in enhanced weight gain and neurological development, and a shorter stay in hospital.
