Tiny mouths, big challenge: can simple exercises help preemies feed and go home sooner?

NCT ID NCT07460089

Summary

This study aims to find the best way to help premature babies learn to feed by mouth, a key step before they can leave the hospital. It will compare a special mouth exercise program (PIOMI), using a pacifier, and standard care in 150 stable premature infants. Researchers will measure how quickly babies learn to feed fully by mouth, their weight gain, and their hospital stay length.
