Circadian Feeding and Reciprocal Scent Intervention in NICU
Babies Nourished by the Rhythm of Time: Maternal and Fetal Effects of Circadian Feeding and Reciprocal Scent Intervention in Neonatal Intensive Care
Objective: This study evaluated the effects of circadian-aligned feeding and reciprocal scent intervention on premature infants receiving mechanical ventilation and on postpartum depression levels in their mothers.
Methods: In this randomized controlled trial, 75 premature infants and their mothers were assigned to reciprocal scent, circadian feeding, or control groups (n=25 each). Interventions were applied for 21 days. Outcomes included time to weaning from mechanical ventilation, weight gain, hydration status, breast milk production, and maternal Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) scores.

Gedetailleerde beschrijving
This randomized controlled trial is designed to evaluate the effects of circadian-aligned feeding and reciprocal scent intervention, both alone and in combination, on clinical outcomes in premature infants receiving mechanical ventilation support and on postpartum depression levels in their mothers.
A total of 75 premature infants and their mothers will be enrolled and randomly assigned to one of three groups: a reciprocal scent intervention group, a circadian-aligned feeding group, or a control group (25 infant-mother dyads per group).
The interventions will be implemented for 21 days during the infants' hospitalization period. The primary outcome measure is time to weaning from mechanical ventilation. Secondary outcome measures include daily weight gain, hydration status assessed through diaper weight, daily breast milk production, and maternal postpartum depression assessed using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS).
The study aims to determine whether these non-pharmacological interventions are associated with improvements in neonatal clinical outcomes and maternal psychological well-being.
