Abstract
Pharyngeal swallows during infant suckle-feeding are associated with a characteristic sequence of sounds audible by stethoscope or by an accelerometer or microphone held over the larynx. In rhythmically feeding term-born neonates, the delineating acoustic elements are discrete sounds which precede and succeed pharyngeal swallows. Digital signal processing shows similarities in morphological detail between the discrete sounds preceding swallows and between those succeeding swallows; those succeeding swallows are more variable in temporal relation to swallows, amplitude and morphological detail. Variations in the pattern of interswallow respiration, including apnea, are correlated with variations in the discrete sounds. Specification of physiological correlates of these internal feeding sounds increases the utility of cervical auscultation as a method of investigation and of clinical observation of feeding.This publication has 19 references indexed in Scilit:
