Eligibility

Age
28 Weeks to 36 Weeks

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Preterm newborns with corrected gestational age of up to 36 weeks and 6 days; with more than 72 hours of life; without pressure ventilation support; hemodynamically stable; Silverman-Andersen Bulletin (BSA)> 1; weight greater than or equal to 1,100 g and with increasing weight gain.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Preterm newborns with congenital malformations; in parenteral nutrition; score of apgar in the 5th minute <6; with grade III or IV Peri-intraventricular hemorrhage (PIVH).

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the effects of techniques / handling in reducing respiratory distress in hospitalized preterm newborns, analyzed by a numerical reduction in the Silverman-Andersen Bulletin score.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Reduction of respiratory rate and heart rate, obtained by reducing the respiratory incursions observed for one minute and by reducing the heart rate numerically, using the DISTAL DX 2022 oximeter.;Increased peripheral oxygen saturation, observed by the numerical increase, using the DISTAL DX 2022 model oximeter.
