Impact of Implementing an Infant Driven Feeding Program on Oral Feeding and Growth Outcomes of Medically Fragile Infants in the Neonatal ICU (NICU)

Growth Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Impact of Implementing an Infant Driven Feeding Program on Oral Feeding and Growth Outcomes of Medically Fragile Infants in the NICU

Clinical Trial Summary

The specific aim of this pre-post trial is to compare data regarding oral feeding, length of stay, and growth outcomes of 100 NICU infants to these same outcomes following the implementation of a developmentally supportive, infant driven feeding program with the NICU staff, specifically the Supporting Oral Feeding in Fragile Infants (SOFFI) infant feeding program on a second sample of 100 NICU infants at Children's Memorial Hospital.

The specific research questions considered in this study are:

1. What is the impact of implementing the SOFFI on the oral feeding outcomes of medically fragile infants in the NICU at discharge and at 3 months post-term?

2. What is the impact of implementing the SOFFI on the growth outcomes of medically fragile infants in the NICU at discharge and at 3 months post-term?

3. What is the impact of implementing the SOFFI on the length of stay of medically fragile infants in the NICU?

4. What is the impact of implementing the SOFFI on the clarity and consistency of NICU staff evaluations and communications related to managing oral feedings with medically fragile infants?
