ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To study the physiological and behavioral response to pain.METHODS:
80 healthy neonates requiring bilirubin estimation, blood sugar etc, were randomly assigned to receive a venous puncture. All parameters were recorded 10 minutes prior, during and 10 minutes after the procedure. Evaluated NIPS score and RR. HR, NIBP and O2 saturation observed on Datex-Ohmeda multimonitor.RESULTS:
After the venepuncture, heart rate (p<0.001) and blood pressure (p<0.001) were significantly increased in both the groups but more significant increase was present in Group I (>2.5 kg) as compared to Group II (>2.5 kg). Respiratory rate was also increased but more significant in Group II (p<0.001) whereas oxygen saturation was decreased in both the groups but more significant in Group I (p<0.001). Median Neonatal Infant Pain Scale (NIPS) score was higher in both the Groups (p<0.001).CONCLUSION:
The outcome measures appear to be reliable indices of term neonates responses to painful stimulation. NIPS are suitable instruments for neonatal pain evaluation.
