Summary

It is important that integrated methods, which will not have a negative impact on the future health of babies who have just started life, are used in neonatal pain management by nurses who are in direct contact with babies, in terms of their ease of applicability. In addition, considering that by reducing the pain of newborns, their comfort will increase, mother-baby bonding will be greater, the newborn's adaptation to the outside world will increase, and sensory neural development will be positively affected. It is important for shaping. When the literature was examined, no study was found that examined the effect of the acupressure therapy method applied during heel blood collection of newborns and the effect of the fetal position on pain together. Accordingly, our study aimed to investigate the effects of these two important methods on pain and physiological parameters in newborns.
