Brief summary
This study was carried out to determine the effect of maternal heart sound listened to by newborns during heel blood collection on pain level and crying time.
Detailed description
The randomized controlled and experimental study was conducted with 60 newborns applied to a public family health center for heel blood collection. The infants in the experimental group (n=30) were listened to the maternal heart sound before, during, and after the heel blood collection procedure, and routine blood collection was applied to the control group (n=30). Newborn Information Form and Newborn Infant Pain Scale (NIPS) were used to collect data.
Interventions
OTHERListening the maternal heart sound during the invasive interventions
Heart sounds of the newborns' own mothers were recorded on the voice recorder with the help of a hand doppler device. This sound was listened by the newborns in the experimental group during the heel blood procedure.

|---|---|---|
| The Newborn Infant Pain Scale (NIPS) | 15 minutes | The Newborn Infant Pain Scale (NIPS) was used. NIPS: Scale Lawrence et al. (1993) was developed to evaluate the behavioral and physiological pain responses of preterm and term infants. The scale consists of five behavioral factors (facial expression, crying, arousal, arm and leg movements) and one physiological (breathing pattern) factor. The crying factor is given 0-1-2 points, the other factors are given 0-1 points, and the total score is between 0-7. A high score indicates greater severity of pain. |
