A range of interventions for feeding aversion are described in the literature, but no single best\u2010practice approach has been established.

By mapping allied health intervention techniques, targets, dose, and settings for improving oral feeding in preterm infants with feeding aversion, it provides professionals with a practice profile against which to reflect on their own approach. The findings also support multidisciplinary working as the gold standard for feeding aversion intervention and suggest that early intervention may yield better outcomes than delaying treatment until the child is older.<\/jats:p>\n                        <\/jats:list-item>\n                      <\/jats:list>\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/1460-6984.70348","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,5]],"date-time":"2026-10-05T12:16:03Z","timestamp":1791202563000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Mapping the Evidence for Allied Health Interventions for Preterm Infants With Feeding Aversion: A Scoping Review"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"61","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1831-4158","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ailish","family":"Harrison","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust  Sheffield, England UK"},{"name":"Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust  Sheffield, England UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sarah","family":"Massey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust  Sheffield, England UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1169-3431","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Philip","family":"Powell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sheffield Centre for Health and Related Research University of Sheffield  Sheffield, England UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4231-1865","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Samantha","family":"Armitage","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust  Sheffield, England UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/0278-6133.27.3.379"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/cch.70061"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00001163\u2010200204000\u201000004"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/mpg.0b013e31819b5db9"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","unstructured":"Department of Health and Social Care2025. \u201cFit for the Future: the 10 Year Health Plan for England.\u201d London:DHSC.
