“…The literature found so far includes studies with ad hoc protocols of multisensory stimulation of preterm and term infants in the areas of mother's own milk production ( 43 ), weight gain, length of hospital stay ( 44 ) and neuromotor development ( 45 , 46 ). However, we did not find any studies on mothers of preterm infants related to measurement of milk volume.…”

IntroductionIn a significant number of NICUs, mothers are unable to provide enough maternal milk to feed their premature babies, so healthcare workers rely on human milk banks. Unfortunately, this service is not available in many countries, such as Peru, where premature infants receive formula. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of multisensory stimulation on mother's own milk production.MethodsParticipants in this study were postpartum mothers of preterm infants 27–37 weeks gestational age. The participants were assigned to three groups: (1) audiovisual stimulation (SAV) (n = 17), (2) audiovisual and olfactory stimulation (SAVO) (n = 17), and (3) control (n = 16). A questionnaire was used to collect demographic and obstetric data, including a record of mother's own milk volume.ResultsThere was no significant difference between the SAV, SAVO and control groups regarding age, marital status, education level, occupation, number of children, mode of delivery, Apgar and birth weight. On the other hand, a significant difference was observed between the SAV and SAVO groups regarding the amount of milk produced, with higher production between the fourth and seventh day (Tukey p < 0.05). Similarly, milk volume was significantly greater in the SAVO group compared to the SAV and control groups (OR = 1.032, 95% CI = 1.0036–1.062, p < 0.027).ConclusionMultisensory stimulation in postpartum mothers of preterm infants caused an increase in the volume of mother's own milk production. However, more research is needed to explain the findings presented in this study.

Background and AimsOral feeding for preterm infants has been a challenging issue globally. In an effort to enhance the effectiveness of oral feeding in preterm infants, oral motor intervention (OMI) was developed. Present systematic review and meta‐analysis study aims to examine the impact of various OMI techniques on key outcomes, including body weight at the time of discharge, the duration required to achieve independent oral feeding, and the length of hospital stay for preterm infants.MethodsA systematic search of the literature was performed across various databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science and Google Scholar up to September 28, 2023. Quality assessment was conducted using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) checklist. The overall effect measure was calculated using a random‐effects model and was presented as the standard difference of the mean (SDM), accompanied by the standard error and a 95% confidence interval (CI). We used I2 statistic for investigating the heterogeneity between studies. Data analysis was performed by CMA software (Version 2).ResultsFinally, 22 articles included in this review. The overall effect for body weight at discharge was found to be statistically significant in the prefeeding oral stimulation (PFOS) (SDM = 7.91, 95% CI: 5.62, 10.2, p = 0.000, I2 = 86.31) and Premature Infant OMI (PIOMI) (SDM = 3.71, 95% CI: 0.72, 6.69, p = 0.01, I2 = 96.64) groups versus control group. The overall effect of independent oral feeding was significant for PFOS‐only (SDM = −0.64, 95% CI: −1.1, −0.17, p = 0.007, I2 = 75.45), PIOMI only (SDM = −1.48, 95% CI: −2.49, −0.46, p = 0.004, I2 = 93.73) and nonnutritive sucking (NNS) only (SDM = −0.53, 95% CI: −0.76, −0.30, p = 0.001, I2 = 0) groups versus control groups. The overall effect of length of hospital stay was significant for NNS group (SDM = −0.45, 95% CI: −0.67, −0.23, p = 0.067, I2 = 0) and PIOMI group (SDM = −0.42, 95% CI: −0.69, −0.15, p = 0.002, I2 = 20.18) versus control group.ConclusionAmong OMIs, the PIOMI approach generally exhibited a more favorable impact on body weight gain at discharge, the duration required to achieve independent oral feeding, and the length of hospital stay.
