Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
No Intervention: standard group
Feeding procedures follow clinical nursing practices

Experimental: intervention group
At appropriate time to invite mothers of premature infants into the NICU for skin-to-skin and breastfeeding
|

During the skin-to-skin period,the breastfeeding is encouraged for about 5-10 minutes.
The whole intervention stop until the baby achieve the full oral feeding.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Transition time from the initiation oral feeding to full oral feeding
Time Frame: During the procedure
|
Transition time was defined as the days needed from introduction of oral feeding to obtain autonomous oral feeding when the nasogastric tube was removed and all the daily milk volume was taken from the bottle.
|
During the procedure

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Exclusive breastfeeding at discharge
Time Frame: During the hospitalization, an average of 2 to 3 months
|
Exclusive breastfeeding at discharge is defined as through breastfeeding without bottle feeding at discharge.On the day of discharge, newborns are weighed before regular feeding and then breastfed by their mothers.
After breastfeeding, the baby is weighed again and the amount of breast milk obtained by sucking the mother's breast is assessed.
If the two weight subtractions are greater than or equal to the amount required for once bottle feeding, the baby is considered exclusively breastfeding at discharge.
