Objective To summarize the best evidence of cue-based feeding management for premature infants at home and abroad, in order to provide reference for formulating scientific and reasonable feeding plans for premature infants. Methods Using computer systems to retrieve evidence on cue-based feeding management in premature infants from Chinese and English databases or websites such as UpToDate, BMJ Best Practice, Yimaitong, and CNKI, including clinical decision-making, guidelines, recommended practices, evidence summaries, systematic reviews, and expert consensus. The retrieval period was from the inception of databases to March 2022. Two researchers who received systematic evidence-based knowledge training independently evaluated the quality of the literature and extracted evidence. Results A total of 10 articles were included, including two clinical decision-making articles, five guidelines, and three systematic reviews. Finally, 32 pieces of evidence were summarized into 6 aspects: personnel qualifications, training, objects, assessment, implementation, and effectiveness evaluation. Conclusion The best evidence for cue-based feeding in premature infants summarized in this study can provide evidence-based evidence for clinical practice, promote the transition from tube feeding to oral feeding in premature infants, and achieve the conversion from the best evidence to clinical practice. Evidence should be selected according to the specific situation when personnels using these pieces of evidence.
