ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the effect of 10％ and 25％ oral glucose on neonatal pain during blood sampling through radial artery.Methods 90 newborns were randomly divided into group A,B and C,each group with 30 cases.2 min before the blood sampling,group A was offered 2ml 10％ oral glucose,group B was offered 2ml 25％ oral glucose,and group C was offered 2ml plain boiled water by oral intake.Pain was evaluated based on Neonatal Facial Coding System (NFCS),Neonatal Infant Pain Scale(NIPS),raise of heart rate and crying cases.Results The scores of NIPS during puncture,the scores of NFCS and NIPS after puncture,the raise of heart rate and crying cases were significantly different between three groups.Group B were lower than group A and group C,while differences between group A and group C had no statistical significance.Conclusions During blood sampling through radial artery,offering newboms 2ml 25％ oral glucose can reduce the pain,while 2ml 10％ oral glucose was ineffective.
