Early introduction of oral feeding helps infants to coordinate sucking, swallowing, and respiration, thereby improving their oral feeding skills. However, early introduction of oral feeding may also contribute to respiratory adverse events; therefore, safety verification is necessary.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Inclusion criteria:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Early introduction of oral feeding is defined as beginning oral feeding at\u00a0&lt;\u00a033\u00a0weeks\u2019 postmenstrual age and transitioning from tube feeding to oral feeding. The primary outcomes are the duration from the initial oral feeding to full oral feeding; postmenstrual age at full oral feeding and discharge; and weight gain.
