Abstract:
Objective:To establish a prompt based feeding process for premature infants and explore its application effects.Methods:This study was a quasi-experimental research method. Firstly, the best evidence of prompt feeding for premature infants was systematically searched and summarized, and the expert consultation method and clinical practice were used to finally formulate a prompt feeding process for premature infants. The process was applied to clinical practice. A total of 82 hospitalized premature infants in the neonatal intensive care unit of Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from October 2021 to March 2022 were selected as the control group, and routine feeding management was implemented. A total of 86 hospitalized premature infants from April to September 2022 were selected as the observation group. Feeding management for premature infants based on the prompt feeding process was followed, and the feeding efficiency, transition time of full oral feeding, and days of gastric tube retention, hospital stay and the incidence of feeding related complications in the two groups were compared.Results:The effective recovery rates of the two rounds of expert correspondence questionnaires were 100%, and the authoritative coefficients of expert opinions were 0.863 and 0.875, respectively. The Kendall harmony coefficients of expert opinions were 0.156 and 0.202, respectively, and the significance tests were all P<0.05. The total oral feeding rate of the observation group was 59.84%(5 256/8 784), the mixed feeding rate was 12.26%(1 077/8 784), and the tube feeding rate was 27.90%(2 451/8 784). Compared with the control group′s 52.20%(4 698/9 000), 14.68%(1 321/9 000), and 33.12%(2 981/9 000), the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 105.21, P<0.05). The transition time of full oral feeding, number of days of gastric tube retention, and hospitalization time in the observation group were (5.14 ± 1.67), (6.13 ± 1.62), and (12.77 ± 1.37) days, respectively. Compared with the control group′s (6.22 ± 1.59), (7.17 ± 1.55), and (13.72 ± 1.72) days, the differences were statistically significant ( t = 4.206, 4.26, 3.97, all P<0.05). The incidence of milk choking, hypoxia, and vomiting in the observation group were 9.30%(8/86), 6.98%(6/86), and 11.63%(10/86), respectively, which were lower than the 23.17%(19/82), 19.51%(16/82), and 34.15%(28/82) of the control group. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 = 5.99, 5.80, 12.16, all P<0.05). Conclusion:The application of prompt feeding process in premature infants can shorten the transition time of full oral feeding, promote the feeding process, reduce the complications caused by poor feeding, and ensure the feeding safety of premature infants.
