The Prefeeding Pathways Framework is the first comprehensive, developmentally grounded model designed to guide clinical reasoning in neonatal prefeeding habilitation. The framework centers on three distinct pathways-foundation, guided progression, and performance-providing primary objectives with clear, actionable goals. The framework offers deliberate and dynamic treatment planning supported by broad therapeutic objectives. Relevant empirical evidence was identified through a focused review process and aligned with each pathway to support clinical decision-making. The framework's goal-oriented design ensures the advancement of clinical practice by allowing adaptability as new research and interventions emerge. It enhances clinical expertise by providing a clear structure for adapting treatment to the evolving needs of premature infants.
