Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected that the pain levels found in newborns during blood collection for newborn screening, are lower in venipuncture of the hand group.Parameter evaluated from the NFCS neonatal pain scale. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is hoped that the painful sensation level during the blood collection procedure are lower in newborns at term. Parameter evaluated from the NFCS neonatal pain scale. It is expected that the group submitted to venipuncture in hand, occurs less changes in vital signs during the procedure. Evaluation of heart rate and oxygen saturation measured before, during and after the procedure. It is expected that the number of punctures to the appropriate blood collection for newborn screening is less venipuncture group at hand. | — |
