Automatic breastfeeding method and automatic breastfeeding machine for premature infant

Abstract

An automatic breastfeeding method of a premature infant comprises a preparation stage, an active lactation stage, a passive lactation stage and a rest stage; the invention also provides an automatic breastfeeding machine used for the automatic breastfeeding method of premature infant, comprising a stomach tube, a lactation supply device, a detector and a control device. One end of the stomach tubeis arranged in the stomach of the premature infant, and the other end is connected with the lactation supply device, the milk supply device is electrically connected with the control device, the control device is electrically connected with the detector, and the detector is arranged in the mouth of the premature infant. The self-sucking ability of the premature infant is trained, and the normal circulation of the mouth-pharyngeal-gastric-intestinal reflex of premature infants is realized, and the nutritional requirements of the premature infants are ensured taking into account the differencesof the premature infants, so that the premature infants have no difference in the care, diet, neurological development and growth and development with term infants in the future.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular relates to an automatic breastfeeding method for premature infants and an automatic breastfeeding machine. Background technique [0002] The advancement of current medical technology has significantly improved the survival rate of premature babies. At present, the survival rate of premature babies with a birth weight of 1000-2500 grams has reached 85-95%. However, the surviving premature babies are prone to concurrent growth retardation. The probability of growth retardation in children is as high as 50%, which not only affects their physical growth, but also greatly increases the possibility of long-term metabolic diseases, hypertension and neurological sequelae. This is related to the difficulty in establishing enteral nutrition in premature infants after birth. The difficulty in establishing enteral nutrition is related to the imperfect development of the gastrointest...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

This method does not take into account the individual differences of premature infants, which may easily lead to feeding intolerance in some premature infants, and this method completely deprives premature infants of their need for sucking, resulting in the inability to train the self-sucking ability of premature infants and making the later self-sucking difficult. Breastfeeding difficulties, resulting in prolonged hospitalization, increased hospitalization costs, and even affect the development of the nervous system, causing a great burden on the family and society
