The signs and reactions, which can arise temporarily or for a longer period ina child with a chronic or acute illness, are defined. Ways are sought to overcome difficulties in re-establishing more normal feeding pattems. The child at risk should be fed in the position that minimises the possibilities of these problems and the function of orofacial structures improved. Non-feeding oral control and stimulation are stipulated when natural feeding is impossible or ceased because of medical contraindications. It is very important to move slowly from artificial to natural feeding, based exclusivelyon a thorough analysis of the child's difficulties; timewise this may be prolonged. For re-establishing good conditions for feeding it is necessary through developmental physiotherapy treatment to reinforce the sensation of good alignment of the body, shoulder girdle and head.
