This work raises a solution for the development of the sucking reflex in premature infants. This
solution is based on a computer that uses a system of control of negative pressure applied directly in
a pacifier common through a dock. In turn, this process is performed using a generator of waves that
controls the frequency of suction as well as the kind of stimulation granted.
The systems of stimulation of suction in preterm infants are presented as the solution, in the face of
scarce stimulators of language, and the presence of latent problem. Currently, there are many
researches [2] that have collaborated with the development process of the language, which would
not only be measured patterns engines of non-nutritive sucking, but also produce a stimulator
natural and harmless with the proper frequency response.
The pacing system suction proposes stimulation based on control of a pneumatic motor and sensing
constant on a variety of parameters, which provide an effective and natural exercise, for newborns
in addition to cost reduction in the case of a treatment of short duration.
Therefore, this thesis aims to design a stimulator system based on the generation of vacuum and
inflated through a valve pneumatic, and sensing constant on a variety of parameters in order to
stimulate the newborn premature to assist in the development of non-nutritive sucking, which
directly affects their language .
The main conclusion it should be mentioned that it is possible to obtain all the patterns engines of
the suction non-nutritious to then use these in the construction of the signal generator of
stimulation in the system that was developed in laboratory conditions.
And it is important the contribution of this multidisciplinary work where unite two areas:
neuroscience and electronics, resulting in initiating investigations in the field of the neurocognitive
language disorder in children.
