The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of oral motor intervention (PIOMI) applied to preterm babies along with the smell and taste of breast milk on feeding parameters and the transition time to oral feeding. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Researchers will compare breast milk-scented PIOMI, breast milk-tasting PIOMI and control groups to see if early feeding skills.
The preterm newborn population is potentially unable to be fed orally for a long time during the postnatal period. Since the physiological functions of preterm babies have not yet matured, their adaptation to the external uterine environment is more complicated. This also means long hospital stays for premature babies. One of the main criteria for a preterm baby to be discharged from the hospital is to be able to feed orally.
Premature oral motor intervention (PIOMI) is included in the literature as one of the treatment programs to improve the oral motor control and neurobehavioral status of preterm babies. No study design has been found regarding PIOMI, which is applied to preterm babies with the smell and taste of breast milk. This research was planned to evaluate the effect of oral motor intervention (PIOMI) applied to preterm babies along with the smell and taste of breast milk on feeding parameters.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Breast milk-scented PIOMI | Experimental | During PIOMI application, the baby will be smelled his/her own breast milk. |
|
| Breast milk-tasting PIOMI | Experimental | During PIOMI application, the baby will be able to taste his own breast milk. The finger on which PIOMI was applied will be immersed in breast milk. |
|
| Control | No Intervention | Only PIOMI application will be made. |

| Breast milk-scented PIOMI | Other | During PIOMI, the scent of breast milk will be provided through cotton soaked in breast milk placed 1.5 cm away from the babies. PIOMI: Oral motor intervention for premature infants is a standardized oral motor therapy for preterm infants that has been shown to have strong intervention fidelity and has been tested internationally. It is a 5-minute, 8-step focused therapy designed to help the premature baby respond functionally to lip, chin and lip movements and pressure, applied for 7 consecutive days using all aseptic precautions with gloved fingers. Intervention provides assisted movement to activate muscle contraction and movement against resistance to build strength. |

| Early feeding skills | EFS was revised to evaluate the feeding skills of preterm infants. The EFS 19 items in 5 subscales: respiratory regulation, oral-motor function, swallowing coordination, engagement, and physiologic stability. The tool includes items that evaluate the development of oral feeding skills and items that describe observable indicators of a problem during feeding. Items related to feeding skills are evaluated using the following 3-option structure: skill not yet observed 1, skill emerging 2 and skill consistently observed 3 with minor variations in wording depending on the item. Indicators of problems within a skill are scored using a frequency-based 3-option structure: frequent indication of problem 1, occasional indication of problem 2, and never or rare indication of a problem 3 and again, the specific wording varies by item. The overall EFS score is the sum of the 5 subscale scores and ranges from 19 to 57. Higher scores indicate more mature feeding skills. | 12 week |

| Breast milk-tasting PIOMI | Other | The finger used during PIOMI application will be performed by dipping it into breast milk. This will ensure that babies taste breast milk.
