Summary

To compare the effects of Yakson Touch, the Dextrose-Sweetened Pacifier, and routine care on physiological responses, pain intensity, and behavioral outcomes among term neonates undergoing phlebotomy.

Conditions

  • Hospital Acquired Infections

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Yakson Touch

Yakson Touch is a non-pharmacological tactile intervention administered to term neonates during phlebotomy to reduce procedural pain and behavioral distress. The intervention is provided during the phlebotomy procedure, with physiological parameters, pain intensity using the Premature Infant Pain Profile (PIPP), and behavioral responses using the Anderson Behavioral State Scale (ABSS) assessed before, during, and after the procedure.

BEHAVIORAL

Dextrose-Sweetened Pacifier

A dextrose-sweetened pacifier is provided to term neonates during phlebotomy as a non-pharmacological intervention for procedural pain management. Physiological parameters, pain intensity using the Premature Infant Pain Profile (PIPP), and behavioral responses using the Anderson Behavioral State Scale (ABSS) are assessed before, during, and after the phlebotomy procedure.
