Resumo: |
Elastic bandage is a therapeutic resource recently applied to the speech-language pathology field. An integumentary stimulation is utilized to promote sensory and mechanical information. There are no neonatology studies in the literature on the effects of elastic bandage on this population. Clinical practice has shown that the application of this resource has been beneficial for the development of oral-motor abilities. Objective: to describe the use of elastic bandage as a complementary resource in the stimulation of infants with difficulty in oral feeding. Method: this is a case study research where four infants (one term and three preterm) were examined and admitted to a Level II neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). The areas where the bandage was going to be applied (suprahyoid and cheeks) were determined by a speech-language pathology evaluation and the infant’s difficulty. The infants’ oral feeding performance was evaluated before, during (24 and 48 hours) and after the use of bandage. The analyzed parameters were: feeding type, suction strength and rhythm, volume ingested per minute, coordination and weight. Results: the elastic bandage application in the four infants has shown an improvement in all the analyzed parameters related to oral feeding. Conclusion: according to the analysis of the cases studied, it was noticed that the use of bandage, independently of the area where it was applied, associated with speech therapy, supported the infants to feed orally in an effective and secure manner |
