Osteopenia of Prematurity Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effect of Daily Exercise Program on Bone Mineral Density and Cortisol Level in Preterm Infants With Very Low Birth Weight: A Randomized Controlled Trial
ABSTRACT Objective: This randomized controlled double-blinded experimental study was carried
out to determine the effects of daily exercise program on bone mineral density and cortisol
level in preterm infants with very low birth weight matched for birth weight, gestation week,
and gender.
Study design: The study was performed with preterm infants hospitalized in the neonatal
intensive care unit of a tertiary hospital. Ethical committee approval, institutional
permission, parental written consent were obtained. Daily exercise program was implemented in
preterm infants in the exercise group for 30 days, once a day, and continuing for 7-10
minutes. Before and after the study the following were evaluated in preterm infants in the
exercise and control group: anthropometric measurements, tibia speed of sound (SOS) for bone
mineral density, serum biochemical parameters and cortisol levels.
