To compare orofacial anthropometric measurements, with weight, height and sex of newborns.
Observational cross-sectional study carried out with 130 newborns on exclusive breastfeeding. Data collection was performed by properly trained and calibrated speech therapists. The orofacial measurements of the newborns were performed with flexible and transparent ruler 10 cm long, in the following segments: heights of the upper third(tr-g), the middle third(g-sn) and the lower third on the face (sn-gn); filter height (sn-Is), distance between the corner of the eye and the labial commissure on the right and left side (ex-ch). Weight and height measurements were collected from the newborns' medical records. The data were submitted to statistical analysis, using the Mann-Whitney test, adopting a significance level of 5%.
Of the 130 newborns, 61 were male and 69 female. The median weight was 3.3 kg and the median height was 49 cm. There was significant difference between weight and measurement distance between the corner of the eye and the left and right labial commissure (ex-ch). There was no significant difference in orofacial measurements with sex and height.
There was no difference in orofacial anthropometric measurements of full-term newborns when compared with sex and height; however, when compared to weight, there is a difference in the measurements of the distance between the corner of the eye and the labial commissure on the right and left side.
比较新生儿口面形态测量值与体重、身高和性别。
这是一项横断面观察研究，共纳入 130 名纯母乳喂养的新生儿。由经过适当培训和校准的言语治疗师进行数据收集。使用长 10cm 的柔韧透明标尺对新生儿进行口面测量，包括面部的上三分之一(tr-g)、中三分之一(g-sn)和下三分之一(sn-gn)的高度；牙槽突高度(sn-Is)，以及左右侧口角到唇珠的距离(ex-ch)。体重和身高数据从新生儿的病历中收集。采用曼-惠特尼检验对数据进行统计学分析，采用 5%的显著性水平。
130 名新生儿中，男婴 61 例，女婴 69 例。体重中位数为 3.3kg，身高中位数为 49cm。体重与左右口角到唇珠的距离(ex-ch)的测量值之间存在显著差异。口面形态测量值与性别和身高无显著差异。
足月新生儿的口面形态测量值与性别和身高无差异；但与体重相比，左右口角到唇珠的距离(ex-ch)的测量值存在差异。
