Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The SENSE program will be applied to babies receiving treatment in the neonatal intensive care unit and the effect of the application on the baby and parents will be examined.

Detailed Description

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

For the growth and health of the baby, the intrauterine environment provides the fetus with protective physical barriers and sensory exposures timed appropriately for its development. These early exposures occur during sensory development in the intrauterine environment, and there are differences in the timing of development of each sense. When the baby is born prematurely, the intrauterine environment is replaced by the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit environment. The sensory environment of the preterm baby includes the experiences of touch, movement, smell, sound, light, frequent nociceptive pain and disruption of sleep. The mismatch between the infant's underdeveloped coping skills and the stimulating NICU environment can cause physiological imbalance, negatively impact growth and development, and ultimately predispose to the development of long-term neurodevelopmental consequences. Although harmful sensory exposures can negatively affect the development of the preterm baby, appropriate positive sensory exposures positively affect brain development.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

SENSE group

Parents of babies in this group will be given SENSE program training. After the training, parents will care for their babies within the scope of the SENSE program. These babies will receive care from their parents with positive sensory exposures within the scope of the SENSE program from admission to the clinic until discharge. Data collection forms will be administered to babies and their parents.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

SENSE group

Intervention Type OTHER

Parents of babies in this group will be given SENSE program training. After the training, parents will care for their babies within the scope of the SENSE program. These babies will receive care from their parents with positive sensory exposures within the scope of the SENSE program from admission to the clinic until discharge. Data collection forms will be administered to babies and their parents.

Control group

The SENSE program will not be applied to the parents of babies in this group. These babies will receive the routine care of the clinic. These babies will be monitored from admission to the clinic until discharge. Data collection forms will be administered to infants and parents.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
