Journal Title: Jurnal Ners - Year 2010, Vol 5, Issue 2

Abstract

Intoduction: Hospitalized neonates may experience pain caused by invasive procedures. Sucrose and non-nutritive sucking are non pharmacological analgesics. The aimed of this study was to examine the effectiveness of sucrose and non-nutritive sucking administration on pain and crying duration of neonates during invasive procedures. Method: The study used quasi-experimental design with post-test only control group design approach. This study used nonprobability sampling technic with consecutive sampling. The sample consisted of 45 neonates, divided into three groups, each group of 15 neonates. Result: The results showed that the pain response and the crying duration were insignifi cantly different between the sucrose group and the NNS, respectively p = 0.635 and p = 0.848. Discussion: Age was identifi ed as a confounding variable that effected pain responses. Provision of sucrose and NNS proven to reduce pain as non-pharmacological pain management for neonates during invasive procedures.
