Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime 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

MeasureTime 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.
