CYCLICAL PATTERN OF NON-NUTRITIVE SUCKING IN NORMAL AND HIGH-RISK NEONATES

ABSTRACTThis study determined patterns of suction cycles by recordingsucking pressure in full-term infants, normal pre-term infantsand newborns with pathology (hypoxia at birth). Associationsbetween these patterns and some clinical parameters wereestablished in order to evaluate feeding capacity for...

description ABSTRACTThis study determined patterns of suction cycles by recordingsucking pressure in full-term infants, normal pre-term infantsand newborns with pathology (hypoxia at birth). Associationsbetween these patterns and some clinical parameters wereestablished in order to evaluate feeding capacity for the purposeof guiding specific stimulation and aiding hospitaldischarge in better health conditions. Seventy-five infants ofboth sexes were assessed after informed consent, grouped bytheir status at birth. Body weight and Apgar score were determined.Sucking pressure was evaluated with an ad-hoc device.Maximum and minimum pressure scores and the number of suctioncycles were measured. Data were analyzed statistically at asignificance level of p<0.05. Maximum sucking pressure valuesvaried between study groups. Full-term infants showed the highestpressure values and number of suction cycles. In pre-terminfants, lower pressure values and fewer suction cycles wereobserved. Those with hypoxia showed great variability in bothparameters. This study found a cyclical pattern of non-nutritivesucking in normal and high-risk newborns. Normal and preterminfants showed a significant direct correlation betweensuction cycles and Apgar scores at 5 minutes, but the infantswith pathology due to hypoxia group did not show the sameassociation. These findings are an important tool that will contributeto improving newborn maternal nutrition and optimizingthe quality of life for high-risk newborns in our environment.
