Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Behavioral pain reaction. Timepoint: Once, during injection period. Method of measurement: Behavioral pain reaction will be measured by FHFHTC method using a check list. The reaction of the Face, Head, Foot, Hand, Trunk and Cry will be divided into four groups and scored from 0-3, so the behavioral pain scores will be ranged from 0-18.This assessment will be done by two nurses that one of them control the reaction of the Face, Head, and Cry and the other one control the reaction of the Foot, Hand and Trunk.	—
