Impact of Olfactory-Gustatory Stimulation Combined with Oral Motor Intervention on Feeding Status and Gastrointestinal Function of Premature Infants
Objective To explore the impact of olfactory-gustatory stimulation combined with oral motor intervention on feeding status and gastrointestinal function of premature infants.Methods 104 premature infants were randomly divided into two groups.The control group received routine nursing+oral motor intervention,and the study group received olfactory-gustatory stimulation intervention on the basis of the control group.The feeding status,gastrointestinal function and feeding adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results The starting and complete oral feeding time,and feeding process of the study group were shorter than those of the control group,the incidence of feeding intolerance and the total incidence of feeding adverse reactions were lower than those of the control group,and the serum MTL and GAS levels after intervention were higher than those of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusions Olfactory-gustatory stimulation combined with oral motor intervention can obviously shorten the feeding process,improve the gastrointestinal function,and reduce the occurrence of feeding intolerance and feeding adverse reactions of premature infants.
