Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
In the hepatitis B vaccine administered to preterm babies, stimulating the grasping reflex can make the preterm baby feel safe and calm. In the literature, there are many studies aimed at reducing pain in preterm newborns. However, no study has been found on the effect of grasping reflex stimulation on pain and crying in hepatitis B vaccine administration to preterm infants.
This study was planned to examine the effect of grasping reflex on pain and crying duration in preterm infants with hepatitis B vaccine.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Control
Routine procedure will be applied
No interventions assigned to this group
Experimental
Palmar grasp reflex will be stimulated with routine procedure.
Palmar grasp reflex
The reflex can be stimulated by moving an object distally across the palm. In the study, at the beginning of the vaccine administration, the right hand of the infant will be moved distally along the palm with the researcher's index finger, thus providing reflex stimulation.
