Abstract
Background and Objective: Many
painful procedures including intravenous
catheterization are performed in the ward
without taking necessary pain-reducing
measures. The present study was conducted
with the aim to determine the effect of
environmental and behavioral interventions
on physiological and behavioral responses
of preterm infants during intravenous
catheterization.
Materials and
Methods: In the present clinical trial,
82 infants with gestational age of 30-37
weeks were randomly divided into intervention
and control groups. In the preliminary
intervention stage, measures such as dimming
light and noise, using eye patch and ear
plugs, reducing nursing manipulations,
and positioning the newborn in fetal position
30 minutes before and 30 minutes after
venepuncture were performed for the intervention
group, but the control group received
only the routine care. Data were collected
using NIPS & EDIN Scale, and analyzed
in SPSS-20.
Results: No
significant difference was observed between
the two groups in behavioral responses
to pain and stress prior to intravenous
catheterization (P>0.05) (P=0.13),
but these responses were significantly
less in the intervention group compared
to the control during and after this procedure
(P<0.05). Moreover, no significant
difference was observed between the two
groups in the mean physiological responses
(P>0.05).
Conclusion:
Dimming light and noise, reducing nursing
manipulations, and fetal positioning during
intravenous catheterization effectively
reduces neonatal pain.

The neonatal period includes the first moment
of delivery to one month after birth. At this
time, physical changes occur in the body and
the infant learns how to respond to many forms
of external stimuli (1). Over the past 25 years,
the prevalence of premature babies has increased
by 30 percent (2). More than 70% of preterm
infants admitted to a special care nursery have
spent time in a NICU (3). Many years ago, it
was thought that babies and infants do not feel
pain because of an immature nervous system or
they feel less pain than adults. At present,
it has been shown that the fiber nerves directing
the pain stimulations are formed during embryonic
development and in fact, term infants have the
same sensitivity to pain as older infants and
children do, and premature infants may be more
sensitive to pain than full term infants (4).
Pain as one of the defensive mechanisms of the
body, indicates abnormal conditions in the body,
so that relief from the pain is a basic requirement
and the right of all people as well as the most
important goals of medical science (5). The
results of a study on neonates in the neonatal
intensive care unit indicated that heel prick
blood sampling was the most common procedure
(56%), followed by endotracheal suction (26%)
and intravenous cannula insertion (8%), and
other procedures with fewer percentages included
venepuncture, intubation, intramuscular injection,
intravenous catheter insertion, peripheral artery
catheter placement, infusion catheter, bladder
urine sampling, cerebrospinal fluid sampling,
and arterial sampling (6). Inadequately managed
pain, for whatever reason, leads to long-term
physiological, psychosocial and behavioral consequences,
and through being aware of stressors that affect
the ill child and their family as well as by
designing and applying safe and effective interventions
to eliminate or reduce stressors, caregivers
should focus their attention on non-traumatic
care (7). Stress and pain in newborns can lead
to many complications such as such as increased
hypoxia, elevated cortisol level (8), impaired
nervous system development (9) and mental disorders
and increased length of hospitalization (10).
The infants responses to pain and stress
can be represented in three behavioral, physiological
and nervous-chemical ways; however, the intensity
and mode of occurrence of these responses depends
upon factors such as maternal gestational age,
severity of illness, and duration of admission
to the neonatal intensive care unit. Behavioral
responses to pain and stress in newborns include
the following: crying, body movements, facial
shrinkage, and decreased or impaired nutrition.
Physiological responses to pain and stress in
newborns include changes in blood pressure and
heart rate, hypoxia, and increased oxygen intake
(11). A high percentage of premature infants
may experience problems that result in more
than 20 days of stay in infants care units
(12). Since infants are unable to meet their
needs by oral feeding, one of their basic care
needs is to provide care by administering fluids,
medicines and nutrition, and for this purpose,
intravenous access is essential (13). Angiocath
is considered to be the first choice in the
newborn baby, which is ideally suited for short-term
treatments (14). In this regard, many painful
procedures, including intravenous catheters
placement, can be performed without the necessary
measures to decrease pain (15). On the other
hand, frequent intermittent catheterization
puts the infant at risk of painful experiences,
stress and the risk of infection and inability
to control the pain caused by it, causing short
and long-term complications for the babys
health (16), including increasing demand on
the cardiovascular system, respiratory system,
immunosuppression, increased intracranial pressure,
which can lead to intravesical hemorrhage, long-term
emotional, behavioral and learning disabilities
(17). Pain in newborns can be controlled by
non-pharmacological methods such as oral sucrose,
non-nutritional sucking, breastfeeding, mother/infant
skin-to-skin contact (kangaroo care), and music
playback during the procedure (18). Furthermore,
according to Stevens 2013, non-drug actions
such as lactation, hugging, touching, massaging,
cold and hot compress, the use of relaxation
techniques, such as playing melodies, music
and attention deviance, can effectively reduce
the infants pain (19, 20). Although the
use of non-pharmacological measures in the control
of anxiety is scientifically and culturally
accepted, they have been forgotten due to lack
of scientific advice in the pediatric wards
(21). Nurses as the most important members in
the treatment team, play an important role in
maintaining the health and well-being of patients
(22). Based on the evolutionary model, taking
care of these babies allows the health care
practitioner to identify the behavioral signs
of the baby, such as when the baby needs sleep
or is under stress due to manipulation and intervention
and design a care plan adapted to his/her characteristics
(23). Evolutionary care and support, integrates
the evolutionary needs of newborns admitted
to the intensive care unit for medical care.
Key concepts in evolutionary care include the
organized improvement of neuropsychological
and physiological behaviors, modifying physical
environment such as light, sound and heat to
protect the sensory and vulnerable system, in
a set of family-centered structures (24). Regarding
the long-term hospitalization of premature infants
in the neonatal intensive care unit and painful
procedures such as intravenous catheter insertion
which can cause pain and stress in the newborn,
as well as the importance of evolutionary care
in reducing pain in infants, this study was
aimed to determine the effect of environmental
and behavioral interventions on the physiological
and behavioral responses of premature neonates
during venepuncture procedure.
The present study was a double-blind clinical
trial (intervention and control group). The
research population consisted of all preterm
infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care
unit of Alzahra hospital affiliated to Isfahan
University of Medical Sciences. The babies who
had the criteria for entering the research were
identified. Having completed the consent form
and being signed by parents, the biographical
information form was completed using the medical
records of the infant. Biographical data included
infants name, fetal age, birth weight,
infant sex, 1 and 5 minutes Apgar score, type
of delivery, number of venepuncture attempts,
and physiological information form including
heart rate, respiratory rate and SpO2. In order
to measure pain in infants, a NIPS checklist
consisting of 6 options (facial expression,
crying pattern, breathing pattern, arm and leg
movement and irritability type), was used. The
lowest score of pain was zero and the highest
score was 7. A score greater than 3 indicated
pain (25). Validity and reliability of this
tool were confirmed according to Dilli study
(2009) (26) and Khodaie studies (2010) (28)
(r = 98). To measure the neonatal stress and
discomfort, EDIN scale containing 5 items (facial
expression, body movements, sleep status, communication
with the nurse, and relaxation) ranging from
0 to 15 was employed; its validity and reliability
were confirmed by Debillon et al., (2001) (
= 0.92) (28). In order to study the physiological
criteria, Saadat Monitoring manufactured by
Pooyandegan Rayan-Sanat, Tehran, Iran was used
and the equipment was calibrated by medical
equipment engineers prior to use. After confirmation
by the Ethics Committee coded by IR.SBMU.RETECH.REC.1395.587
and obtaining written permission from the authorities,
the researcher visited the Neonatal Intensive
Care Unit of Al-Zahra Hospital in Isfahan to
collect samples and by explaining the aims of
the study for the authorities and staff of the
neonatal intensive care unit, sampling was performed.
According to the sample size formula, 41 neonates
(in each group) were selected for participation
in the study and were randomly assigned (colored
beads) to two, intervention and control, groups.
Then, the environmental and behavioral interventions
including closing the eyes of the newborns with
an eye patch to decrease light, closing the
ears of the newborns with ear plug to reduce
the auditory stimuli and fetal positioning using
the nests provided by the researcher, were implemented
in the ward by the researcher. After 30 minutes
of interventions, an intravenous catheter insertion
was performed by an experienced nurse while
interventions continued. At the same time, another
nurse who had a work experience of at least
one year in the neonatal ward and knowing how
to fill out the measurement tools, completed
the checklist 2 minutes prior to the venepuncture,
during the venepuncture and 5 minutes later
and 30 minutes after the venepuncture while
interventions continued. Physiological data
and related checklist were completed and samples
were taken out after an hour of relevant study.
For each studied neonate, no environmental and
behavioral interventions were performed in the
control group, but all the information gathering
and checklists completing procedures were implemented
and recorded as the first one. Data analysis
was performed using SPSS version 20. In descriptive
statistics, descriptive indicators such as mean
and standard deviation were reported. The repeated
measures analysis of variance was used to compare
the two groups at different times. Also, for
comparing demographic indices in two groups,
independent t-test, Mann-Whitney and Chi-square
test were used.

intervention
and
control
groups
(p
=
0.13).
However,
the
mean
of
stress
and
discomfort
scores
in
the
intervention
group
was
significantly
less
than
the
control
group
during
and
5
and
30
minutes
after
the
venepuncture
(p
<0.05)
[Table
6].
Table

Comparison
of
mean
stress
score
at
different
times
between
the
two
groups

There
are
many
studies
worldwide
about
some
of
the
environmental
interventions
(light
and
noise
reduction),
neonatal
physiological
and
behavioral
responses
(heart
rate,
respiratory
rate
and
arterial
oxygen
saturation)
and
various
pain
assessment
methods,
but
no
research
has
been
found
in
relation
to
the
effect
of
environmental
and
behavioral
interventions
on
the
physiological
and
behavioral
responses
of
premature
infants
candidates
for
intravenous
catheter
insertion
admitted
to
the
neonatal
intensive
care
unit.
The
results
of
this
study
showed
that
although
the
average
heart
rate
in
the
two
groups
was
different
and
was
firstly
increased
during
the
venepuncture
and
was
decreased
over
time,
no
significant
difference
was
found
between
the
mean
heart
rate
at
different
times
between
the
two
groups.
The
mean
respiratory
rate
and
arterial
oxygen
saturation
were
higher
in
the
intervention
group,
but
these
changes
did
not
show
a
statistically
significant
difference
in
any
of
the
two
groups
over
time.
The
results
of
this
study
are
in
line
with
Marilyns
study
2013
(29)
in
Canada
as
well
as
the
study
by
Jacques
Sizun
(30)
in
France
in
2002.
The
results
of
this
study
showed
significant
physiological
changes
(mean
SpO2
and
heart
rate)
among
newborns
with
evolutionary
care
before
and
after
weighing
compared
with
the
control
group,
but
the
rate
of
hypoxic
attacks
was
decreased
significantly,
which
was
in
line
with
the
results
of
studies
by
Johnston
et
al.
(31)
and
Taheri
et
al.
(32)
in
2007-2008.
In
terms
of
heart
rate
and
respiratory
rate,
the
results
of
this
study
were
consistent
with
the
study
of
Taheri
et
al.,
but
did
not
have
an
agreement
on
the
amount
of
arterial
oxygen
saturation.
This
discrepancy
can
be
due
to
the
difference
between
the
procedures
conducted
in
the
study.
The
results
of
this
study
are
consistent
with
the
results
of
the
study
by
Slevin
et
al.
(33)
in
2000.
In
addition,
the
results
of
this
study
are
consistent
with
the
results
of
the
research
by
Abdeyazdan
et
al.
(34)
(2013),
for
the
respiratory
rate,
but
are
inconsistent
in
terms
of
oxygenation
rate.
This
discrepancy
in
outcomes
can
be
attributed
to
the
difference
between
the
interventions
in
the
study.
The
results
of
this
study
are
not
consistent
with
the
results
of
the
study
by
Celine
Catelin
and
colleagues
(35)
in
France
in
2005.
Their
study
showed
that
the
implementation
of
environmental
and
behavioral
interventions
such
as
(closing
babys
eyes
and
ears,
non-nutritious
diet,
kangaroo
and
family-centered
care,
shaking
the
baby
and
putting
the
baby
in
a
fetal
position)
during
the
weighing
process
resulted
in
significant
changes
in
physiological
criteria;
it
suggests
that
these
interventions
have
led
to
a
decrease
in
respiratory
rate
and
a
decrease
in
heart
rate,
and
an
increase
in
arterial
oxygen
saturation,
which
can
be
due
to
the
low
number
of
samples
in
each
group
(15
neonates
for
each
group).
However
in
the
recent
study,
increasing
the
number
of
neonates
in
each
group
(n
=
41)
as
well
as
different
procedures
in
the
study
could
be
the
reasons
for
discrepancy
in
the
results.
Regarding
the
embryos
position,
the
results
of
this
study
are
not
consistent
with
the
results
of
the
study
by
Reyhani
et
al.
(2011)
in
Mashhad
(36).
This
discrepancy
can
be
attributed
to
individual
differences,
demographic
characteristics
of
infants,
providing
different
nursing
care
in
infants
intensive
care
units
and
different
fetal
age.
Moreover,
the
results
of
this
study
are
not
consistent
with
the
results
of
the
study
by
Nasimi
et
al.
(2014)
in
Mashhad
(37).
This
discrepancy
can
be
due
to
the
different
procedures
conducted
in
the
study;
these
studies
have
been
done
using
an
invasive
procedure
during
a
venepuncture,
while
the
study
by
Nasimi
et
al.,
has
been
conducted
with
normal
procedures
in
the
ward.
Other
results
obtained
from
this
study
also
showed
that
there
was
no
significant
difference
between
the
mean
score
of
pain
in
newborns
2
minutes
before
venepuncture
and
30
minutes
after
venepuncture
between
the
intervention
and
control
groups
(p
>0.05);
but
the
mean
score
of
pain
in
the
intervention
group
was
significantly
less
than
that
of
the
control
group
during
and
5
minutes
after
the
venepuncture
(p
<0.05).
Additionally,
there
was
no
significant
difference
between
the
mean
stress
intensity
and
discomfort
in
the
neonates
2
minutes
before
the
venepuncture
between
the
intervention
and
control
groups
(p
=
0.13),
but
the
mean
score
of
stress
and
discomfort
in
the
intervention
group
was
significantly
less
than
that
of
the
control
group
during
as
well
as
5
and
30
minutes
after
the
venepuncture.
The
results
of
this
study
were
in
line
with
the
results
of
the
study
by
Celine
Kathleen
et
al.
(2005).
Also,
the
results
of
this
study
are
consistent
with
the
results
of
the
study
of
Reyhani
et
al.
(2011)
implying
that
the
fetal
position
decreased
the
pain
intensity
of
newborns
in
the
intervention
group
compared
to
the
control
group.
According
to
the
results,
we
can
conclude
that
there
are
no
environmental
and
behavioral
interventions
that
affect
the
physiological
and
behavioral
responses
of
the
premature
infant,
so
further
research
is
recommended.
Given
the
advantages
of
reducing
pain
and
stress
during
the
intravenous
catheters
insertion
in
premature
infants,
their
low
cost,
the
lack
of
specific
equipment
and
the
need
for
evolutionary
care,
it
is
recommended
to
use
these
interventions
in
order
to
decrease
the
pain
of
premature
neonates
during
painful
procedures
including
venpuncture.
