Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışma bebeklerde aşılama sırasında uygulanan kanguru bakımının ağrı üzerine etkisini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır.
Yöntem: Araştırma, 128 sağlıklı 1 aylık bebek ve anneleri ile randomize kontrollü olarak yapılmıştır. Verilerin toplanmasında; sosyodemografik bilgi formu, Yenidoğan Bebek Ağrı Ölçeği, nabız oksimetresi ve kronometre kullanılmıştır.
Bulgular: Aşılama öncesinde, sırasında ve sonrasında gruplar arasında; NIPS skorları, oksijen satürasyon oranları ve ağlama süreleri açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılıklar tespit edilmiştir. Aşılama işlemi öncesinde ve sırasında gruplar arasında kalp atım hızı açısından anlamlı bir fark bulunmazken, aşılama sonrasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark tespit edilmiştir.
Sonuç: Kanguru bakımını aşılanan bebeklerde ağlama süresini, kalp atım hızını ve ağrıyı azalttığı, buna karşın kandaki oksijen satürasyon düzeylerini artırdığı belirlenmiştir.

Effect of Kangaroo Care on Pain in Infants: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Abstract

Aim
This study was conducted to determine the effect of kangaroo care on pain during vaccination in infants.
Method
The study was conducted as a randomised controlled trial with 128 healthy one-month-old infants and their mothers. Sociodemographic information form, Neonatal Infant Pain Scale, pulse oximetry and stopwatch were used for data collection.
Results
Statistically significant differences were found between the groups before, during and after vaccination in terms of Neonatal Infant Pain Scale scores, oxygen saturation rates and crying times. While there was no significant difference between the groups in terms of heart rate before and during the vaccination procedure, a statistically significant difference was found after vaccination.
Conclusion
Kangaroo care has been found to decrease crying time, heart rate and pain in vaccinated infants, while also increasing blood oxygen saturation levels.
