Abstract

Nurses working in neonatal nursery units play a crucial role in assessing the preterm infants feeding readiness cues for initiation of oral feeding and implementing the evidence-based intervention to support the development of feeding skills. Objectives: To assess the effect of educational intervention on neonatal nurses’ practices regarding oral Motor stimulation on early transition from to oral oral feeding in preterm infants. Methods: A quasi-experimental single group study conducted in Children Hospital Lahore from May to July 2023. Pre and post intervention data was collected through the observational checklist from 36 nurses working in Neonatology. Nurses were educated through PowerPoint presentation and direct demonstration on infants. Results: Descriptive statistics showed that Majority of nurses were having diploma in nursing, 4-10 years’ experience and belonged to 31-45 years age category. In inferential statistics Paired sample t-test revealed that the majority of nurses (100%, n=36) had incompetent practices before training which were improved (91.6%, n=33) after educational intervention with significant p-value<0.05. Conclusions: The nurses who received training revealed competent practices so we conclude that educational intervention was effective to improve the nurses’ practices.

教育干预对新生儿护士在早产儿早期从管式喂养过渡到口服喂养时进行口腔运动刺激的影响

在新生儿护理病房工作的护士在评估早产儿开始口喂的喂养准备提示和实施循证干预以支持喂养技能的发展方面发挥着至关重要的作用。目的评估教育干预对新生儿护士在早产儿早期从口腔喂养过渡到口腔马达刺激方面的实践的影响。方法：2023 年 5 月至 7 月在拉合尔儿童医院进行了一项准实验性单组研究。通过观察核对表收集了 36 名新生儿科护士的干预前后数据。通过 PowerPoint 演示和对婴儿的直接示范对护士进行教育。结果：描述性统计显示，大多数护士拥有护理文凭，工作经验为 4-10 年，年龄在 31-45 岁之间。推理统计的配对样本 t 检验显示，大多数护士（100%，n=36）在培训前的操作不规范，在教育干预后有所改善（91.6%，n=33），P 值显著<0.05。结论：接受培训的护士表现出了合格的操作，因此我们得出结论，教育干预对改善护士的操作是有效的。
