使用鼻高流呼吸支持之早產嬰口腔餵食與吸入風險：一項橫斷面研究

// Oral Feeding and Aspiration Risk in Preterm Infants Receiving Nasal High-Flow Respiratory Support: A Cross-Sectional Study

本研究評估使用鼻高流量（NHF）療法的早產兒口服餵食時的吸入風險｜透過20名早產兒的臨床餵食評估與X光吞嚥檢查，採用穿透-吸入量表（PAS）測量吸入嚴重度｜結果顯示吸入嚴重度與未調整流量無關，但經體重調整後呈顯著負相關，顯示部分穩定早產兒可安全口服餵食，強調需個別化風險評估而非僅依NHF使用決策。

// This study aimed to assess aspiration risk during oral feeding in preterm infants receiving nasal high-flow (NHF) therapy by correlating NHF flow rates with oropharyngeal aspiration (OPA) severity. Researchers conducted clinical feeding evaluations and videofluoroscopic swallow studies on 20 preterm infants, measuring aspiration using the Penetration-Aspiration Scale (PAS) and recording NHF flow rates. Results showed no correlation between aspiration severity and unadjusted flow rate, but a significant inverse correlation when adjusted for weight. The findings suggest some stable preterm infants may safely feed orally on NHF, emphasizing individualized risk assessment rather than NHF use alone.
