Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of non-nutritive sucking combined with massage on digestive function in premature infants .Methods Ninety six premature infants from January 2012 to December 2012 were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group , each with 48 cases.The control group received the routine feeding and nursing , and the observation group received the non-nutritive sucking combined with massage on the basis of the control group .The cases of gastric residue , vomiting and abdominal distension, the waiting time of meconium and the time of intestinal nutrition heat up to 418.4 kJ/(kg· d) were compared between two groups .Results The incidence rates of gastric residue , vomiting and abdominal distension were respectively 12.5% (6/48), 10.4% (5/48) and 8.3% (4/48) in the observation group, which were lower than 31.2%(15/48), 27.1% (13/48), 22.9% (11/48) in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (χ2 =4.94,4.38,3.87, respectively;P<0.05).The waiting time of meconium and the time of intestinal nutrition heat up to 418.4 kJ/(kg· d) were respectively (5.6 ±0.7) d, (18.6 ±2.8) d in the observation group, which were shorter than (7.7 ±1.6) d, (21.9 ±2.1) d in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (t =8.333,6.532, respectively;P<0.01). Conclusions The non-nutritive sucking combined with massage can promote the process of digestive function development and maturation in premature infants .
