Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Complete oral feeding intervention

Premature infants will be assessed 12 times a day before feedings using the Feeding Preparation Scale by trained nurses. Assess the premature infants by using the Feeding Preparation Scale. If the premature infant does not meet the oral feeding standard, let the premature infant use the non-nutritive sucking for 3 minutes before the nasal feeding. If the premature infant meets the oral feeding standard, use the non-nutritive sucking for 3 minutes, and refer to the feeding schedule for the premature infant.

BEHAVIORAL

Routine nursing care group

Pre-feeding assessments will be performed from premature infants corrected for gestational age at 34 weeks. If the baby's vital signs are stable, the method of oral feeding and then nasal feeding is used, and feeding 8 to 12 times a day until the baby reaches complete oral feeding.
