Description
Summary:Aim: This study was conducted to examine the effect of three different methods for reducing pain and stress among term neonates undergoing venipuncture. Materials and Methods: The research sample comprised 80 term neonates with hyperbilirubinemia who were being treated at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The term neonates were allocated, according to the randomization method, into a smelling breast milk group (n=20), a pacifier/dummy group (n=20), a prone position group (n=20), and a control group (n=20). Results: It was determined that there was a statistically significant correlation between the pain and stress score averages of the breast milk, prone position, and pacifier/dummy groups according to all measurements taken before, during, and after the procedure (p
