We compared Nifty cup with Katori-spoon feeding in preterm neonates deemed fit for oral feeding. Methods: This open-label randomized controlled trial was performed in a level III neonatal unit. Preterm (<34 weeks) neonates deemed fit to initiate oral feeding were randomly allocated to the Nifty cup and Katori-spoon groups.

Jul 27, 2020 · To compare the two methods (Katori spoon versus Paladai) of alternative oral feeding for low birth weight neonates in terms of weight gain, spillage, time to reach mature breast feeds and ...

Sep 16, 2020 · Preterm LBW infants with birthweight >1250 g and on cup, paladai, or katori-spoon feeds or intragastric tube feeding may be given feeds fed every 3 h. Weak recommendation, based on low-to-very-low-quality evidence.

Aim: To compare the Nifty cup with Katori-spoon feeding in preterm neonates on full gavage feeds and deemed fit for oral feeding. Materials and Methods: This open-label, parallel, randomized controlled trial will be done at the step-

Uses a medium sized cup and a small (1-2ml size) spoon. Both utensils must be washed and cleaned. To stimulate and maintain milk production one should express milk frequently – at least 8 times in 24 hours. It is important not to try to express in a shorter time.

• Place the katori on the table/stool. • Fill the spoon with 1-2 ml of milk. • Place the spoon on the side of the lips. • Let the milk trickle from spoon into infant's mouth. • Observe that the infant will swallow the milk. • Feed till the required amount is fed. • Shake or stir the katori containing EBM frequently to mix-up the ...

Our research question is whether the Nifty cup, as compared to traditional Katori-spoon feeding, achieves full oral feeds (150 mL/kg/day) earlier in preterm infants (< 34 weeks gestational age at birth) on gavage feeds?
