Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome: greater permanence in the states of sleep positioning on nest in the prone position compared to the right lateral decubitus, verified by observing the state of wakefulness and sleep measured on an ordinal scale ranging from 0 to 6 behavioral activation.;Outcome found: the positioning nest in the prone position favored the maintenance in the states of sleep (deep sleep, active sleep and sleepiness) and maintaining the uninterrupted deep sleep state with respect to the lateral position. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome: adequate levels of heart rate and higher levels of peripheral oxygen saturation in positioning nest in the prone position with respect to the lateral position.;Outcome found: there was no clinically relevant difference between the positioning nest prone and lateral position, considering the heart rate and oxygen saturation measured in 30 minutes of observation. | — |
