Sucking may reduce the manifestations of pain in newborn infants.
To examine the effect of suckling on the threshold for peripheral somatosensory responses.
Graded Von Frey filaments were applied to the heel to initiate peripheral somatosensory responses (withdrawal reflex and gross body movements) in term infants.
Dummy sucking increases the somatosensory threshold, but breast feeding had a more marked effect, increasing the threshold of the flexion withdrawal reflex (p<or=0.002) and the threshold for gross body movements (p</=0.002).
Peripheral sensitivity of newborn infants is considerably reduced during sucking, particularly at the breast.
吸吮可能会减轻新生儿的疼痛表现。
研究吸吮对周围躯体感觉反应阈值的影响。
使用分级的冯弗雷细丝刺激足后跟,引发足月儿的周围躯体感觉反应(退缩反射和全身大动作)。
假吸吮可提高躯体感觉阈值,但母乳喂养的效果更显著,可提高屈肌退缩反射阈值(p≤0.002)和全身大动作阈值(p≤0.002)。
新生儿在吸吮时,尤其是在吸吮母乳时,周围感觉敏感性会显著降低。
