Karya ilmiah ini merupakan analisis pelaksanaan praktik residensi keperawatan anak selama dua semester. Kegiatan utama yang dilakukan antara lain memberikan asuhan keperawatan pada bayi prematur dan praktik keperawatan berbasis pembuktian. Asuhan keperawatan pada bayi prematur menggunakan teori comfort Kolcaba. Diagnosis keperawatan yang sering muncul pada bayi prematur adalah nyeri prosedural, gangguan termoregulasi, nutrisi kurang dari kebutuhan tubuh dan risiko infeksi. Intervensi dengan teknik mengukur kenyamanan, edukasi pada orangtua, dan melalui tindakan menenangkan jiwa. Praktik keperawatan berbasis pembuktian dilakukan melalui facilitated tucking disertai "hadir-berbicara" untuk menurunkan skor nyeri prosedural. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa intervensi berbasis teori comfort Kolcaba efektif untuk meningkatkan kenyamanan. Disarankan agar teori comfort Kolcaba dapat diterapkan dalam pemberian asuhan keperawatan pada bayi prematur.
