Effectiveness of an Oral Feeding Educational Nurse Program on Feeding Performance in Preterm Neonates (TOP)
Evaluation de la Formation Des infirmières à la Stimulation de l'oralité Des Nouveau-nés Dans Une unité de Réanimation néonatale et Néonatologie : Impact Sur Les Connaissances, Les Pratiques et Sur la qualité Des Soins
Poor oral motor development in preterm neonates is common. Feeding problems lead to longer hospital stay and higher hospital cost. Different interventions have shown their efficacy to accelerate transition and move faster to full oral feeding autonomy. Our study aimed to evaluate the impact of a 2-year education nurse program on feeding pattern and hospital stay of preterm neonates.
This is an interrupted time series study placed in Intensive Care and Neonatal unit of an university hospital located in Lyon, France. All preterm neonates are included in the study, from April 2013 to January 2016.

Preterm neonates
All preterm neonates of less than 34 weeks' of gestation admitted to the Neonatology and Neonatal Intensive Care unit of an university hospital located in Lyon, France
|
A multidisciplinary group composed of childcare assistants, nurse guardians, speech therapist, physiotherapist, psychologist, and pediatricians will develop and implement the educational oral feeding program. They will provide the 2-day theoretical session as well as the three 2-hour practical sessions including reviews of video recording preterm neonates during bottle or breast feedings. The program will focus on non-nutritive sucking for all neonates from 24 up to 34 weeks' of gestation, early oral feeding from 29 weeks' of gestation and oral stimulation for all preterm neonates admitted to the unit. Additionally, all preterm neonates presenting feeding difficulties symptoms will be evaluated weekly by a physiotherapist or speech therapist. Each program session is composed of 20 nurses or childcare assistants. Six sessions will be organized in total and all nurses and childcare assistants will be trained |
