Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Design and methods: This was a single-centered, single-blind, 3-arm, pretest-posttest parallel-group randomized controlled trial conducted in a neonatal intensive care unit. Participants were randomly assigned to one of three groups: Supine position group (n = 20), hourly position change group (n = 20), and control group (n = 20). The bilirubin level and comfort levels of the neonates were evaluated.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Supine position group
These neonates were placed in supine position, fed every 2 hours in accordance with routine clinical practice, and then returned to supine position.
Supine position group
These neonates were placed in supine position, fed every 2 hours in accordance with routine clinical practice, and then returned to supine position.
Hourly position change group:
Infants in this group were repositioned "every hour" based on the time of phototherapy initiation. Neonates were initially placed in supine position and then changed to the prone position. Infants were alternated between supine and prone positions every hour for 24 hours.
Hourly position change group
Infants in this group were repositioned "every hour" based on the time of phototherapy initiation. Neonates were initially placed in supine position and then changed to the prone position. Infants were alternated between supine and prone positions every hour for 24 hours.
Control Group (2-hour position change)
Neonates in this group were repositioned every 2 hours as routine practice based on the time of phototherapy initiation.
Control Group (2-hour position change)
Neonates in this group were repositioned every 2 hours as routine practice based on the time of phototherapy initiation. Phototherapy was started with neonates in supine position. In the second period, the neonate was placed in the prone position after routine feeding was performed.
