Materials and Methods: Eleven adults from diverse backgrounds were recruited and asked to feed a baby doll using a bottle feeder with a long nipple, and their actions were recorded. Then, they watched a 2.5-min instructional video of the Kumagai method and were asked to bottle-feed again. Video recordings of the participants were used to evaluate whether their actions followed the Kumagai method. Differences in the feeding actions of the specialists and participants were determined from still images in the videos. The McNemar test was used to analyze the differences between the participants\u2019 actions before and after. The Kruskal\u2013Wallis test was also used to determine differences between the actions of participants and specialists. Results: Feeding movements significantly improved after watching the video. Participants\u2019 actions, which differed significantly from those of the specialists, were evident in \u201cthe angle of the nipple at the moment the nipple was brought close to the lips\u201d and \u201cthe angle change of the nipple from the lip to the mouth\u201d. Conclusions: Watching our short instructional video was effective in improving the technique of the Kumagai method; however, it is insufficient for feeding a real child with cleft lip and palate. Including the rationale of each action in the video and adding direct instruction as a supplement is required.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/children11111358","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,12]],"date-time":"2024-11-12T03:53:14Z","timestamp":1731383594000},"page":"1358","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Effectiveness of Watching a Kumagai Method Video for Long-Nipple Bottle-Feeding for Children with Cleft Lip and Palate: A Pilot Experimental Before\u2013After Trial Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5750-6251","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shingo","family":"Ueki","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medical Sciences, Kyushu University, Fukuoka 812-8582, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yukari","family":"Kumagai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nursing, Osaka University Dental Hospital, Osaka 565-0871, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yumi","family":"Hirai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nursing, Osaka University Dental Hospital, Osaka 565-0871, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-2041-8219","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eri","family":"Nagatomo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medical Sciences, Kyushu University, Fukuoka 812-8582, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shoko","family":"Miyauchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Advanced Information Technology, Faculty of Information Science and Electrical Engineering, Kyushu University, Fukuoka 819-0395, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Takuro","family":"Inoue","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Informatics, Graduate School of Information Science and Electrical Engineering, Kyushu University, Fukuoka 819-0395, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7641-2632","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Qi","family":"An","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Human and Engineered Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Frontier Sciences, The University of Tokyo, Chiba 277-8563, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-8251-107X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eri","family":"Tashiro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medical Sciences, Kyushu University, Fukuoka 812-8582, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0001-8030-0518","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Junko","family":"Miyata","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medical Sciences, Kyushu University, Fukuoka 812-8582, Japan"},{"name":"Department of Pediatric Surgery, Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Kyushu University, Fukuoka 812-8582, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"602","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bjorl.2015.10.020","article-title":"Feeding methods for children with cleft lip and\/or palate: A systematic review","volume":"82","author":"Duarte","year":"2016","journal-title":"Braz.
