Abstract
Researchers and clinicians need to be aware of procedures that are more adaptable to new and different environments in premature infants; therefore, it is important to conduct a comprehensive review of the effect of aromatherapy on apnea attacks and oxygen saturation (SpO2 ) in premature newborns. In this review, databases such as PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library were systematically searched without language and time limitations up to November 1, 2022. Initially, 153 studies were founded, and after duplicate removal, title as well as full-text review, seven studies were enrolled in the final analysis. Studies indicated that aromatherapy with Rosa damascena, vanilla, and breast milk odors could significantly reduce apneas in preterm infants and improve SpO2 levels. Hence, aromatherapy could consider as an effective adjuvant treatment for the reduction of apnea attacks among preterm infants.
研究人员和临床医生需要意识到更适合早产儿新的和不同环境的程序;因此,对芳香疗法对早产儿呼吸暂停发作和血氧饱和度(SpO2)的影响进行全面综述是很重要的。在这篇综述中,截至2022年11月1日,PubMed、Scopus、Web of Science和Cochrane Library等数据库在没有语言和时间限制的情况下进行了系统搜索。最初,共建立了153项研究,在删除重复、标题和全文审查后,有7项研究被纳入最终分析。研究表明,用大马士革罗莎、香草和母乳气味进行芳香疗法可以显著减少早产儿的呼吸暂停,并提高SpO2水平。因此,芳香疗法可以被视为减少早产儿呼吸暂停发作的有效辅助治疗方法。
