Evaluación nutricional de niños prematuros atendidos por el método piel a piel. Nutritional assessment of premature infants undergoing skin-to-skin method
Abstract
Se realizó un estudio prospectivo y longitudinal con el objetivo de evaluar los efectos del "Método Piel a Piel" sobre algunas variaciones del estado nutricional de niños prematuros nacidos vivos, ocurridos en el Hospital Gineco-Obstétrico Provincial Docente "Justo Legón Padilla" de Pinar del Río, desde enero-97 hasta diciembre-98. Se estudiaron 130 niños con estas características, a las cuales se les llenó una planilla donde se recogió, peso, edad gestacional, sexo, crecimiento intrauterino, estado nutricional, alimentario y la morbilidad hasta el año de edad. Los datos obtenidos se depositaron en base de datos para el procesamiento estadístico, aplicándose el test de Chi cuadrado y la Prueba T de comparación de media, ambos con un nivel de significación de p < 0,05. Observamos que con la aplicación del Método Piel a Piel se logra reducir la estadía hospitalaria, prolongación de la lactancia materna exclusiva al sexto mes de vida y no existieron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en el estado nutricional al año de edad, comparándolos con niños normales nacidos a términos (controles).
