Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Participants of both sexes will be selected; RNT (term newborn) and PTNB (preterm newborn); weighing around 1.250g; from the 1st week of life; clinically stable; with full enteral nutrition (breast, nasogastric tube or cup); in the process of daily weight gain; with oxygen therapy or in room air

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Newborns with hemodynamic instability; hyperthermia (above 37,8 °C) and hypothermia (below 36,4 °C); invasive devices (central and peripheral venous access, umbilical catheter, gastrostomy, plastic or metallic tracheostomy); presence of remaining umbilical cord; skin lesion; infectious diseases; decompensated cardiovascular diseases; history of uncontrolled seizures; presence of orthopedic immobilization; failure to sign the Free and Informed Consent Form

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1: To assess whether there was a 10% increase in diaphragmatic mobility amplitude measured in millimeters by means of kinesiological ultrasound before and after a single intervention.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
2: It is expected to find pre and post stability of vital signs such as heart rate, respiratory rate, peripheral oxygen saturation and body temperature, verified by the oximeter monitor with foot sensor and thermometer positioned in the participant's axillary region.;3: Reduction or stability in the level of respiratory distress, assessed using the Silverman-Andersen Bulletin, with an expected score below 4 points post-intervention.;4: Reduction or stability in the level of pain, assessed using the NIPS scale (Neonatal Infant Pain Scale), with an expected score below 3 points post-intervention.;5: It is expected to find adequacy in the sleep and wakefulness cycle, through the Brazelton adapted sleep and wakefulness scale, with a behavioral state below 5 post intervention.
