About
A randomised clinical trial in a single centre. This study was performed to compare the effect of white noise, facilitated tucking, and their concerted application during heel-stick sampling on pain in term babies.
The study was conducted on 90 babies. Using stratification and blocking method, 30 babies were included in the white noise group (1st Group), 30 in facilitated tucking group (2nd Group), and 30 in white noise + facilitated tucking group (3rd Group). Pain scores of the babies in all groups before, during, and after the procedure were evaluated by two nurses independent from each other using Neonatal Infant Pain Scale (NIPS).
Full description
Aims and objectives: This study was performed to compare the effect of white noise, facilitated tucking, and their concerted application during heel-stick sampling on pain in term babies.
Design: A randomised clinical trial in a single centre. Methods: The study sample size was determined by the free-software G* Power. Based on the power analysis performed prior to the study in order to determine the number of babies to be included in the sample group (with β=0.14087 and α=0.05 risk, Power=0.85913), according to the study by Karakoc and Turker (2014), it was found that 27 neonates should be included in each group. The study was conducted on 90 babies, between July 1, 2017 - August 9, 2017. Using stratification and blocking method, 30 babies were included in the white noise group (1st Group), 30 in facilitated tucking group (2nd Group), and 30 in white noise + facilitated tucking group (3rd Group). Pain scores of the babies in all groups before, during, and after the procedure were evaluated by two nurses independent from each other using Neonatal Infant Pain Scale (NIPS).
