Studies regarding the effectiveness of premature infants\u2019 enteral feeding improvement by tactile stimulation massage are rare.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Design<\/jats:title><jats:p>The study group was composed of 55 patients. Of the 55 patients, 26 were randomised into an experimental group and 29 were randomised into a control group.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>They were all born &lt;34 weeks of gestational age between 1 July 2011 and 30 March 2012. Premature infants in the experimental group received enteral feeding improvement massage twice a day for 14 days, and infants in the control group received a sham exercise. The collected data were analysed by <jats:sc>spss<\/jats:sc> 19.0, through <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic> test, chi\u2010square test (Fisher's exact) and ANCOVA.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>(i) The experimental group had reached the day of full enteral feeding significantly faster.

(iii) The experimental group of the feeding\u2010intolerant subgroup had a higher superior mesentery artery <jats:italic>V<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>max<\/jats:sub> and <jats:italic>V<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>min<\/jats:sub>. (iv) The experimental group had a heavier weight and larger head circumference after 14\u00a0days.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study demonstrates that enteral feeding improvement massage can be helpful for achieving earlier full enteral feeding, more increased superior mesentery artery, and faster growing.
