Effects of Therapeutic Positioning in Mechanically Ventilated Preterm Infants

This randomized controlled trial evaluated the effects of three therapeutic positions on physiological parameters, pain, and comfort in mechanically ventilated preterm infants. A total of 60 preterm infants born between 35 and 37 weeks of gestation were randomly assigned to the supine, prone, or fetal position group, with 20 infants in each group. Physiological parameters, pain, and comfort were assessed at baseline, 30 minutes, 2 hours, and 3 hours after positioning. Pain was assessed using the Premature Infant Pain Profile-Revised, and comfort was assessed using the COMFORTneo scale.

The Effect of Breast Milk Odor and Swaddling on Physiological Parameters and Stress Levels in Premature Infants Receiving Ventilator Support

It will be done to shorten the hospital stay of the newborn and increase the quality of care by proving the positive effect of the safe wrapping method and the smell of breast milk on the physiological parameters and stress level of the newborn in premature newborns receiving mechanical ventilator support. 1. Safe wrapping method positively affects physiological parameters in premature newborns receiving mechanical ventilation support. 2. Safe wrapping method reduces stress in premature newborns receiving mechanical ventilation support. 3. Safe wrapping method increases comfort in premature newborns receiving mechanical ventilation support. 4. The smell of breast milk positively affects physiological parameters in premature newborns receiving mechanical ventilation support. 5. The smell of breast milk reduces stress in premature newborns receiving mechanical ventilation support. 6. The smell of breast milk increases comfort in premature newborns receiving mechanical ventilation support. This study aims to answer the hypotheses
