Abstract(s)
Este estudo quase experimental do tipo pré teste pós teste com grupo de controlo homogéneos, de natureza quantitativo, avaliou os efeitos da
massagem no recém-nascido pré-termo internado em unidades de cuidados intermédios neonatais a nível do ganho ponderal.
A amostra foi constituída por 32 recém-nascidos pré-termo clinicamente estáveis e saudáveis, internados em unidades de cuidados intermédios
neonatais portuguesas. Os recém-nascidos pré-termo foram distribuídos aleatoriamente para os grupos controlo e experimental, em número
igual de dezasseis, e nas diversas variáveis basais os grupos não apresentaram diferenças estatisticamente significativas, obtendo-se assim grupos
equivalentes. O grupo experimental apresentou em média 30,11 semanas de gestação, 1,326 kg de peso ao nascer e 20,44 dias de duração do
internamento na unidade de cuidados intermédios. O grupo de controlo apresentou em média 30,94 semanas de gestação, 1,409 kg de peso ao
nascer e 17,81 dias de duração do internamento na unidade de cuidados intermédios.
Durante o estudo os grupos receberam o mesmo padrão de cuidados neonatais à excepção do grupo experimental que recebeu a massagem.
A massagem administrada foi a de Field utilizada no Touch Research Institute, durante cinco dias consecutivos em três períodos diários.
Para avaliar o efeito da massagem sobre o ganho ponderal pesaram-se diariamente os recém-nascidos pré-termo nas mesmas condições
e demonstrou-se que os recém-nascidos pré-termo massajados apresentaram em média um ganho ponderal diário superior em 45%
comparativamente ao grupo de controlo.
This quasi-experimental quantitative study, with pre-test and post test and a homogeneous control group, evaluated the effects of massage on the weight of preterm neonates hospitalized in neonatal intermediate care units. The sample consisted of 32 clinically stable and healthy preterm neonates, hospitalized in Portuguese intermediate neonatal care units. The preterm neonates were randomly allocated to two groups - control and experimental – with each group having an equal number of 16; there were no statistically significant differences between the groups on several baseline variables and thus they formed equivalent groups. The experimental group had an average of 30,11 weeks of gestation and weighed 1,326Kg at birth, and spent 20,44 days hospitalized in the intermediate care unit. The control group had an average of 30,94 weeks of gestation, weighed 1,400Kg at birth and spent 17,81 days hospitalized in the intermediate care unit. During the study, both groups received the same pattern of neonatal care, except that the experimental group received the massage. The massage was that of Field, used in Touch Research Institute, and was administered over five consecutive days in three daily periods. To evaluate the effect of the massage on weight gain, the preterm neonates were weighed daily in the same conditions, and it was demonstrated that those who had been massaged had an average daily weight gain 45% superior to that of the control group.
