Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study was planned in a parallel randomized controlled trial design. The population of the research will be preterm infants followed in the Newborn Intensive Care Unit of Atatürk University Health Research and Application Center between May 2022 and September 2022. Randomization in the sample of the study will be done in the computer environment. Sample size was determined by power analysis. In the collection of data; Preterm Baby Information Form, Preterm Baby Follow-up Form, Neonatal Stress Scale and ALPS-NEO pain and stress assessment scale will be used. In the control group, the PIC intervention will be performed by the investigator in accordance with clinical procedures. In the experimental group, the baby's grasping reflex stimulation will be provided during the PIC attempt.

Grasping Palmar Reflex

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Graspin Palmar Reflex Stimulation

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The grasping reflex is an involuntary response involving the hands and fingers. flexion-adduction movement. The reflex resembles the grasping movement of the hand. The reflex can be achieved by moving an object distally across the palm.
