Influences of different feeding methods on feeding tolerance and nutritional status of preterm infants / 现代临床护理

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the influence of different feeding methods on feeding tolerance and nutritional status of preterm infants.Methods Forty-eight cases of preterm infants were randomly divided into experiment group and control group,24 cases in each group.The experiment group adopt 24 hours continuous feeding by infusion pump,and the control group with syringe injection,with injection time of 3~5mins every 2 hours.The two groups were compared in terms of feeding tolerance,body weight and nutritional status.Results The feeding intolerance of experiment group was lower than that in the control group,weight and prealbumin were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion The continuous feeding is the ideal feeding method,which can improve growth,feeding tolerance and nutritional status of preterm infants.
