Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Multisensory stimulation module

* Tactile Stimulation; Gentle stroking massage with moderate pressure, with warm palms for 3 min in a sequence of chest, upper limbs, and lower limbs in supine position. * Visual Stimulation; Black and white visual stimulation card hung at 8-10 in. from the neonate for 3 min. * Vestibular Stimulation; neonates placed in a hammock for 3 min. * Kinesthetic stimulation: It consist of passive exercises (flexion and extension) of upper and lower limbs; one of the hands support the stimulated limb, whereas the other hand will perform the movements for 3 min. in supine position. * Oral stimulation: the perioral structures will stroke by gently tapping the cheeks, lips and jaw by the index and middle finger for 2 min and stroking the intraoral structures by rubbing the gum and applying downward pressure of the tongue for 2 min. Non-nutritive sucking for 8 minutes. * Olfactory Stimulation for 3 min. using mother's milk. * Auditory Stimulation listening to mother's heart beats for 3 min.
