Abstract
Low birth weight infants (LBW) are reported to be at risk for posttraumatic feeding disorder (PTFD). In this study, we evaluated the outcome of an intervention program for infants with PTFD. LBW infants with PTFD (N=21) completed feeding behavior questionnaires at entry and after completing the program and were compared to a matched control group. PTFD group infants showed a significantly high rate of food disorder symptoms at entry but not at follow-up compared to the control group. The intervention program for PTFD infants resulted in reduced feeding disorder symptoms.
