Abstract

Objective To observe the effects of tactile/motor stimulation massage on feeding outcomes and neuromotor development levels of preterm infants. Methods A total of 136 preterm hospitalized infants in the neonatal intensive care unit of a tertiary hospital in Yunnan Province from January 2024 to July 2024 were enrolled and randomly assigned to a control group and an experimental group, with 68 cases in each group. The control group received the routine care for preterm infants, while the experimental group received tactile/motor stimulation massage as an intervention in addition to the routine care. The time taken from gavage to oral feeding （d）, the rate of complete oral feeding （%）, the incidence of feeding intolerance （%）, the weight（g）, the length（cm）, the head circumference（cm）, neonatal behavioral neurometric score （NBNA） and Psychomotor development index （PDI） were compared between the two groups. Results The time from gavage to oral feeding in the experimental group （12.73±1.86） days was significantly shorter than that in the control group （13.66±1.68） days, and the difference was statistically significant （P < 0.05）; the rate of complete oral feeding in the experimental group （89.7%） was significantly higher than that in the control group （70.6%）, P < 0.05, and the incidence of feeding intolerance in the experimental group （8.8%） was significantly lower than that in the control group （16.2%）, P < 0.05; The experimental group showed superior results in weight, length, and head circumference compared to the control group （P < 0.05）; The neonatal behavioral neurometry score of the experimental group （36.16±1.53） was significantly higher than that of the control group （35.10±2.66） , P < 0.05, and the motor development index in the experimental group （76.88±6.12） was significantly higher than that in the control group （74.34±5.07）, P < 0.05. Conclusion Tactile/motor stimulation massage can effectively improve the feeding status and promote the neuromotor development of preterm infants.
