Caffeine is present in the feed of the Brazilian and the relationship between consumption and the occurrence of apnea of prematurity has been investigated in pregnant women, since when crossing the placenta may stimulate the respiratory center. The aim of this study was to relate the consumption of maternal caffeine during pregnancy and the incidence of apnea in preterm infants. It was used data collection form for the RN and a questionnaire about dietary recall eating habits during pregnancy. The RNs followed under observation for five hours / day for 3 days, to identify the occurrence of pauses and apneas or previously recorded. The data were submitted to Spearman correlation test for non-parametric variables, considering the significance level of p <0.05. We studied 20 premature and only 01 had an episode of apnea. Moreover, there was no significant statistical correlation between caffeine intake and the occurrence of apneas.
