Popis: Background Acute pain and distress during medical procedures are commonplace in newborn admitted to Intensive Care Unit and can have detrimental effects, if uncontrolled. Accumulating evidence suggests that neonate, as older children, could benefice of non pharmacological interventions (NPIs) to relive mild to moderate pain, anxiety and discomfort from minor invasive procedures. [1] These therapies include nonnutritive sucking (NNS) both with and without sucrose, swaddling, positioning, facilitated tucking (FT), kangaroo care or skin to skin contact (KMC), multi-sensorial stimulation (SS) and music therapy.
