Filter by:The study was aimed to examine the effects of fetal positioning during venipuncture on the neonates' pain score and physiological parameters (heart rate, blood-oxygen saturation, body temperature, crying duration) in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). This randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted between 10.2021-07.2022 with 60 preterm neonates, aged 26-32 week of gestation. Neonates were divided into intervention group (n=30) and control group (n=30) according to the randomization method. The neonates in the intervention group were put into fetal positioning at least 10 minutes before the procedure, and then venipuncture was performed. The fetal positioning was maintained throughout the procedure and the patient was kept in the fetal position for at least five more minutes after the procedure. Changes in the neonates' pain score and crying duration as well as heart rate, blood temperature, blood-oxygen saturation at three time points: before the procedure, immediately after needle insertion, five minutes after needle removal. Data was collected using the sociodemographic form, neonatal observation form and Neonatal Pain, Agitation and Sedation Scale (N-PASS). The collected data were analyzed using the SPSS 15 software. The main questions it aims to answer: 1. Does fetal positioning have an effect on pain score of premature neonates? 2. Does fetal positioning have an effect on heart rate of preterm neonates? 3. Does fetal positioning have an effect on oxygen saturation of preterm neonates? 4. Does fetal positioning have an effect on body temperature of the preterm neonates? 5. Does fetal positioning have an effect on the crying duration of preterm neonates?
37. babies under the gestational week are considered preterm babies, and babies between 32-37 gestational weeks are considered late preterm babies (WHO, 2023). Dec. While the preterm birth rate in the world is 10%, this rate is 13% in Turkey. The life rate of preterm babies has increased in recent years and they are subjected to many painful interventions for diagnosis, treatment and preventive purposes. At the time of birth, they experience painful interventions such as vitamin K, hepatitis B vaccine administration, heel blood collection. Painful interventions cause an increase in cortisol levels, resulting in impaired blood sugar in infants, impaired brain development, impaired growth and development (Akyildiz et al., 2023). In the short term, they may give signs of a decrease in oxygen saturation, an increase in heart rate, metabolic acidosis( Akcan et al., 2017). Procedural pain management is also important for the neurological development of preterm infants (Perg et al., 2018). For these reasons, the pain of the newborn due to interventional procedures should be managed well.
The purpose of this pre-market clinical study is to evaluate the performance (efficacy) and safety of an autonomous blood drawing device (Venipuncture Device). The study consists of several phases (A, B1, B2, C1, C2, 0). Phase B1 is a confirmatory, Pivotal Clinical Study, required for regulatory approval, in which non-inferiority should be demonstrated in comparison to manual blood drawing. Phases A, B2, C1, C2 are all exploratory studies, in which the technology and usability is further improved and tested. Phase 0 is an exploratory study for non-invasive technology testing (for example for improvement of ultrasound detection). The study locations are outpatient blood drawing departments, in which patients are included as subjects. Additionally, in Phase A and C1, a small number of volunteers is included in a non-hospital site (Vitestro Site).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the act of venipuncture is more successful on the first attempt using near infrared light compared to a standard puncture on children or newborn whose venous access is considered difficult due to lack of visibility of the veins.
Newborns are frequently exposed to acute or chronic pain experience due to different invasive interventions. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends minimizing the pain associated with invasive procedures. Reduction of pain primarily requires accurate assessment of pain, and treatment with pharmacological/nonpharmacological interventions. Touch is one of the first senses developed in the newborn. Gentle Human Touch (Gentle Human Touch) is one of the therapeutic touch methods. Gentle touch, which is a simple and applicable method in newborns, is a non-invasive touch technique that does not require special equipment and technology. The gentle touch method is a sensitive tactile stimulation applied to the skin, without stroking or massage, and provides a relaxing effect on the baby. Studies have shown that the gentle touch method increases the sleep level of preterm infants, reduces pain, stress and cortisone levels, reduces restlessness and keeps the heart rate under control. Newborns need their parents, especially their mothers, to be by their side during any kind of intervention. For this reason, the presence of the parent next to the newborn during invasive procedures and the primary role in nonpharmacological interventions provides optimal comfort for the nurse, the newborn and the caregiver. When using nonpharmacological methods, it is important to take advantage of the family-centered care model. Family-centered care is a model of care based on cooperation between health professionals and children's families in the planning, delivery and evaluation of health Decency. Its general objective is to improve the quality of health services for children and families, to increase the satisfaction of families and health professionals, and to ensure the effective use of personnel. Accordingly, this thesis study was planned in a randomized controlled experimental design type in order to determine the importance of family-centered care model and parents' participation in the procedures and the effect of gentle touch method applied by mothers during bloodletting on preterm pain level, physiological parameters, crying time and anxiety level of the mother.
This study was carried out to determine the effect of breathing exercise performed during peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) application on pain, anxiety and patient satisfaction. The study was completed as a randomized controlled experimental study with a total of 130 individuals who met the inclusion criteria. The Descriptive Characteristics Questionnaire, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and the Numerical Rating Scale were used to collect the data of the study. In addition, Algometer (66 Lb/30 Kg) device was used to evaluate the pain pressure threshold in determining the individuals to be included in the research sample. The individuals in the intervention group were given diaphragmatic breathing exercise while applying the catheter, and the individuals in the control group were inserted without any application.
Venipuncture is the most frequent invasive procedure in hospitals and clinics. In the pediatric population this is very often associated with fear, anxiety, distress and enhanced perception of pain. Local anesthetic creams (like EMLA) are used to reduce pain and distress but they need 30-60 minutes of waiting between the application and the puncture, which is too much time for most of everyday life clinical contests. Many distraction techniques have been studied, both active (ie video games, virtual reality) and passive (ie listening to music, visual stimulation). Active production of music is one of the most complex activities for our central nervous system. It requires a precise timing of a lot of well-coordinated actions, like recognition and conservation of a rhythmic structure, precise execution of quick and complex fine movements, and with an important involvement of intense emotional experience. It stimulates bilaterally primary and secondary auditory cerebral areas, but also motor and premotor areas, language areas and their contralateral, cognitive areas. At the same time, it activates reward and gratification circuits with stimulation of the limbic system and endorphin release and also neurovegetative system. Music is probably the most immediate and spontaneous communication tool that can also act at subcortical level without the person being aware of what they are receiving and transmitting. Music activates the dopaminergic mesolimbic system, which regulates memory, attention, executive functions, motivation and also mood and pleasure through the nucleus accumbens. It also produces measurable cardiovascular and endocrine responses indicated by reduced serum cortisol levels and inhibition of cardiovascular stress reactions. The Leap Motion Controller is an infrared device that digitalizes the movements of the hand above it in real-time: this is connected with a software that converts this signal into a musical tone specifically set. The melody is created very easily just by moving the hand above it. With this device, children will be able to produce music without anything interposing between them and the sound production. This will allow the patient to focus only on the melodies, without technical difficulties that could derive for instance from a visual interface or an instrument you have to hold.
The management of pain related to venipuncture remains insufficient in very preterm infants (VPI. The separation between the mother (father) and her(his) child can aggravate the short-term painful experience of the newborn. Accurate diagnosis and treatment of pain is necessary to preserve the well-being and brain development of VPI. A better understanding of the development of pain pathways and the cortical integration of nociceptive messages is essential to reach this goal.
The aim of the study was to determine the effects of providing procedural informational animation, Buzzy application during the procedure, the combination of both interventions (Animated video and Buzzy), and standard care on pain management during venipuncture in children aged 6-12 years.
Accurate assessment of pain in neonates in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is vital because of the high prevalence of painful experiences, including both daily procedural pain and postoperative pain, in this population. It has been reported that newborns born between the gestational ages (GY) 25-42 and hospitalized in the NICU undergo an average of 14 painful procedures per day in the first 2 weeks of life. The aim of this study is determinin the effect of different procedures on the pain levels of newborns in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).
