Abstract | ||||
Background: Pain relief is achieved through pharmacological and non- pharmacological methods. White noise and lullaby sounds are suggested as non- pharmacologic strategy to relief pain that can be applied to infants during invasive interventions. Aim: Evaluate the effect of white noise and Brahms’ lullaby on infants' pain and physiological parameters during invasive interventions. Design: randomized controlled trial. Subjects & Setting: purposive sample of 90 infants from Neonatal and Pediatric Intensive Care Unit of Tanta Main University Hospital and Elmabara Hospital. Tools: Tool I: Infants' bio-social characteristics, Tool II: Infants' Physiological Parameters, Tool III: Infant Pain Scale. Results: The infants in the white noise group had none to mild pain, while the lullaby group experienced mild to moderate pain as compared to the control group who experienced severe pain. Conclusion: White noise and Brahms’ lullaby were effective in reducing infants' pain and improve physiological parameters during invasive interventions. Recommendation: Pediatric nurses should adopt non- pharmacological approaches including white noise and Brahms' lullaby to relieve pain during invasive interventions on infants. | ||||
