The Effect of Massage with MCT Oil on Weight Gain in Premature Neonates |
|
| چکیده انگلیسی مقاله |
Prematurity and poor weight gaining are important causes for neonatal hospitalization. The present study aimed to investigate the role of medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) oil via massage therapy as a supplementary nutritional method on the weight gain of Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU)-hospitalized neonates. This randomized clinical trial performed among 121 stable premature neonates hospitalized in the NICU of Qaem Educational Hospital, Mashhad, Iran. They were randomly divided in three groups: oil-massage, massage alone and control groups. These groups were compared on the basis of weight gain during a one week interval. The three groups were matched for sex, mean gestational age, birth weight, head circumference, type of delivery, and feeding type ( P >0.05). The mean weight gain on the 7th day in the oil-massage group was 105±1.3gr and 52±0.1gr in the massage group; whereas 54±1.3gr weight loss was observed in the control group. Significant differences were observed between the oil-massage group and the other two groups, respectively ( P =0.002 and P =0.000). The findings of this study suggest that transcutaneous feeding with MCT oil-massage therapy in premature neonates can result in accelerated weight gain in this age group with no risk of NEC. |
