Abstract Pain is an unpleasant subjective response due to tissue disruption. In neonates, itcan be assessed by Neonatal Infant Pain Scale (NIPS) from the facial expression,body movement, crying or resting behavior of the infant. Nurses may carry on thenon-pharmacological intervention to minimize the pain of the neonates afterinvasive procedures. One of the interventions is the combination of Non NutritiveSucking (NNS) and sucrose. This research was designed as the quasi experimentalpost test only control group research involving 20 participants in the control andintervention group. The data were analyzed using independent t-test. The researchfound the lowest pain response scale was 0 and the highest was 2, with the median0.5, in the intervention group. Whereas, in the control group, the lowest andhighest pain scales were 5 and 7, respectively, with median 0.5. This researchsuggests this combination of NNS and sucrose to reduce the pain response inneonates after intravenous catheter insertion. |
