Researcher 1: We’re recording.
Researcher 2: Were recording.
Researcher 1: Yes.
Researcher 2: So, thank you so much for agreeing to participate in this research study and we have six questions that were going to be asking you, and um, starting with, um, telling us one of the most challenging, one of the most challenging, um infants with NES that your feeding or that you fed.
RN A-3: Well, when they come, when they are admitted to the floor.
Researcher 2: Uh-huh.
RN A-3: Um, we try to feed them right away so we don’t have to start an IV on them or throw down an NG tubes. So, it’s the admission, um, by the time they are admitted, they’ve already had high scores, so their feeding is pretty disorganized. So, we, we, try to keep an NG …show more content…
RN A-3: You put a nipple in their mouth and they are, they go back and forth.
Researcher 2: Uh-huh.
RN A-3: They just cent center it in their mouth and.
Researcher 2: Wow. So, why do you think, perhaps you were more successful than others, in completing the feeding?
RN A-3: Um, because you take your time.
Researcher 2: Okay, so you take your time.
RN A-3: You, you, what you want to do, is you want to put the nipple in their mouth, let it stay there for a minute, see if they can put their, their mouth around it.
Researcher 2: Uh-huh.
RN A-3: Um, you want to put your hand, run your fingers around their mouth, you want to give chin support, you want to um, try to lead them, but let them find their way too. It takes some time; it takes a lot of time sometimes.
Researcher 2: Uh-huh, it sounds like you have to be very gentle but persistent and supporting that baby, is that what you are saying?
RN A-3: Yeah, yes, you have to be gentle but you have to support, you have to lead them.
Researcher 2: Uh-huh.
RN A-3: As soon as they get their mouth around it, they’re okay. So, you want to do, um you want to do a chin support, you want to do a mouth support too.

Wow, these are things I didn’t know, so. when you know that you won’t be, when do you know that you won’t be successful in feeding a baby that has NES?
Researcher 1: I know your good for this.
Researcher 2: Um, so, when you know that you won’t be, when do you know that you won’t be successful in feeding a baby that has NES?
RN A-3: So, you really want to be, first of all, because your other option is, throwing a tube down, putting an NG tubes down and you don’t want to do that. You just don’t want to. You don’t want that added stress on them or the family. Um, but there is a point where you just say, he’s not, he’s not going to eat it, he’s not going to take in what he needs.
So, um, when he can’t, when he or she can’t, they just won’t suck on that, they just won’t do it, or they are sucking so hard that they are not getting anything. But, your usually, it, what you do is, this is their mouth and they flair back and forth on the nipple, like that. So, if they’re never going to put their mouth around that nipple, they are never going to eat and that’s when you know.
Researcher 1: That’s where you know that –
RN A-3: There scores are so high that they are not going to do, they’re just not going to do it, because there is so much going on with
