“…6 GI hormones, such as gastrin, motilin, secretin, and cholecystokinin, play an important role in controlling GIT motility, secretory, digestive, and absorptive functions. 7 It was previously shown that preterm infants have initial low levels of GIT hormones, which did not reach maximal levels until the infants reached a daily mean total intake of 50 mL/kg of enteral feeding. 8 Previous research showed that oral stimulation led to earlier, better oral-feeding performance, attainment of full oral feeding, greater weight gain, and earlier hospital discharge.…”

“…Preterm infants have disorganized types of intestinal motility at <30 weeks and a fetal complex pattern between 30 and 33 weeks’ gestation, whereas the more mature forms of motility, like the migrating motor complex pattern and the interdigestive motility pattern, develop between 33 and 36 weeks and at term gestation, respectively 6 .

Background: Oropharyngeal administration of milk prior to gavage feeding has been shown to improve feeding tolerance in preterm infants. Objectives: The aim is to study the effect of oropharyngeal administration of mother's milk (OPAMM), prior to gavage feeding, on the levels of gastrin, motilin, secretin, and cholecystokinin hormones. Methods: Preterm infants (<32 weeks' gestation) were randomized at a corrected gestational age of 33-34 weeks, in a crossover design, to receive 1 of 2 protocols: 24 hours of OPAMM practice (applying 0.2 mL of mother's milk prior to each gavage feeding) followed by 24 hours of regular gavage-feeding practice in the first protocol or vice versa in the second protocol. The levels of gastrin, motilin, secretin, and cholecystokinin hormones were measured at the end of 24 hours of both practices. Results: The data of 40 preterm infants (20 in each protocol) were analyzed. OPAMM was associated with a significant increase in the levels of motilin (median, 233; interquartile range [
