But I need to know if anyone out there knows of studies done on cup feeding
- actual statistics of increased successful breastfeeding of preterms after
using cup feeds rather than bottles, and minute ventilation, tidal volume,
oxygen saturations during cup feeding.
>This info would be very helpful in promoting cup feeds in our NICU .
Dani,
Check out Paula Meier (sp?). She has published lots of studies on the
subject. I can probably look up some of the references from her
presentation at the UNM conference in the spring of 1995 if this isn't
enough help.
