AIM
To determine whether preterm infant massage leads to consistent increases in vagal activity and gastric motility and whether these increases are associated with greater weight gain.
METHODS
EKG and EGG were recorded in 80 preterm infants randomly assigned to a moderate pressure massage therapy group or to a standard care control group to assess vagal activity and gastric motility responses to massage therapy.
RESULTS
Massaged infants exhibited consistent short-term increases in vagal activity and gastric motility on both the first and the last days of the 5-day study that were associated with weight gain during the 5-day treatment period. No changes in basal vagal activity or gastric motility were noted across the 5-day treatment period.
CONCLUSION
Preterm infant massage is consistently associated with increases in vagal activity and gastric motility that may underlie the effects of massage therapy on preterm infant weight gain.
目的
确定对早产儿进行按摩是否会持续增加迷走神经活动和胃动力，以及这些增加是否与体重增加更多相关。
方法
将80名早产儿随机分为中度压力按摩治疗组或标准护理对照组，记录心电图（EKG）和胃电图（EGG），以评估按摩治疗对迷走神经活动和胃动力的反应。
结果
在为期5天的研究的第一天和最后一天，接受按摩的婴儿迷走神经活动和胃动力均出现持续的短期增加，这与5天治疗期内的体重增加有关。在5天治疗期内，基础迷走神经活动或胃动力没有变化。
结论
早产儿按摩与迷走神经活动和胃动力增加始终相关，这可能是按摩疗法对早产儿体重增加产生影响的基础。
