Health Condition 1: P073- Preterm [premature] newborn [other]

Interventions

Intervention1: Multisensory stimulation: For infants born at 34-37 weeks, stimulation will be started after 48 hours of birth. The stimulations were given during quiet alert state of preterm infant ap
(b) Neck from midline outwards with both hands simultaneously
(c) Shoulders from midline outwards with both hands simultaneously
and (d) Back from nape of neck down to buttocks with firm, long stroke with alternate hands for 5 minutes. Tactile stimulation, this is done in supine position with 12 gentle moderate pressure linear
