Application of white noise therapy on the alleviation of hospital procedural pain of colostomy newborns / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the application value of white noise therapy on the alleviation of procedural pain of colostomy newborns.Methods:By a prospective, randomized and controlled trial, a total of 88 colostomy newborns in Hunan Children′s Hospital from January 2018 to January 2020 divided into experimental group (44 cases) and control group (44 cases) according to the random number table method. The control group received routine nursing; based on thesis, the experimental group played white noise intervention therapy on the basis of routine nursing. The intervention effect was assessed byNeonatal Infant Acute Pain Assessment Scale (NIAPAS), the first crying time and the duration of first crying, the first painful face and the duration of first painful face as well as heart rate and blood oxygen saturation.Results:The first crying time and the duration of first crying, the first painful face and the duration of first painful face were (28.05 ± 7.39) s, (46.18 ± 13.29) s, (32.89 ± 6.79) s, (52.75 ± 10.71) s in the experimental group, significantly shorter than in the control group (35.79 ± 5.81) s, (35.79 ± 5.81) s, (38.64 ± 10.53) s, (59.79 ± 13.52) s, the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 2.71-5.47, all P<0.05). During and after the procedure, the scores of NIAPAS were (6.32 ± 1.62) points, (4.18 ± 1.06) points in the experimental group, significantly lower than that in the control group (7.43 ± 1.78) points, (4.79 ± 1.34) points ( t=3.06, 2.38, both P<0.05); the heart rate were (152.82 ± 13.25) times/min and (147.84 ± 12.37) times/min in the experimental group, significantly lower than in the control group (166.11 ± 13.79) times/min and (155.77 ± 12.84) times/min ( t=4.61, 2.95, both P<0.05); the blood oxygen saturation were 0.979 8 ± 0.009 5 and 0.980 9 ± 0.012 4 in the experimental group, significantly higher than in the control group 0.969 1 ± 0.014 9, 0.972 3 ± 0.017 8, the difference was statistically significant ( t=4.01, 2.65, both P<0.05). Conclusions:White noise therapy can effectively alleviate procedural pain and stabilizing vital signs of colostomy newborns.
