Placing a small volume of colostrum – the first milk produced by the mother during the first few days of life – directly onto the inside of the cheeks of preterm infants may provide immunological and growth factors that stimulate … Continue reading
Correlation of Premature Infant Sleep/Wakefulness and Noise Levels in the Presence or Absence of “Quiet Time”
Peak sound levels during sleep can compromise the development of hospitalized infants. Quiet time is a strategy implemented in neonatal units to promote the sleeping of neonates by reducing noise levels, luminosity, and handling during particular periods of the day. … Continue reading
Temperature and Humidity Associated With Artificial Ventilation in the Premature Infant: An Integrative Review of the Literature
Approximately half of the 55,000 very low birth-weight infants (<1500 g) born in the United States each year develop bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Many etiologies have been associated with the development of BPD, including aberrant temperature/humidity levels of artificial ventilation. This … Continue reading
