Abstract

Objectives

The study was conducted to investigate the effect of swing on stress and comfort in premature newborns who could not be reunited with their mothers.

Methods

The study was conducted in a randomised controlled experimental design. The intervention group included newborns who received swing intervention (n = 64) and the control group included newborns who did not receive swing intervention (n = 64). Research data were collected using Newborn Information Form, Premature Infant Comfort Scale and ALPS neo newborn pain and stress assessment scale. The research data were collected two times, before and after the intervention was completed.

Result

Experimental and control groups were similar regarding descriptive characteristics. There was no difference between the groups after the swing intervention (p > 0.05). It was determined that there was no significant difference between the groups in terms of comfort levels before and after the swing intervention (p > 0.05). When the intra-group mean scores were compared, it was determined that the comfort level increased in the intervention group before and after the swing intervention, and there was a significant difference between the mean scores (p = 0.028).

Conclusion

It was determined that swing intervention did not affect the stress and comfort level of the newborn.

摇摆对早产儿压力和舒适的影响：一项随机对照试验。

目的：本研究旨在探讨荡秋千对不能与母亲团聚的早产儿压力和舒适度的影响。方法：采用随机对照试验设计。干预组包括接受秋千干预的新生儿（n = 64），对照组包括未接受秋千干预的新生儿（n = 64）。研究数据采用新生儿信息表、早产儿舒适量表和ALPS新生儿疼痛和应激评估量表收集。研究数据收集于干预完成前后两次。结果：实验组与对照组描述性特征相似。摇摆干预后各组间差异无统计学意义（p < 0.05）。经测定，两组患者在摇摆干预前后的舒适程度无显著差异（p < 0.05）。比较组内均分，确定干预组在摇摆干预前后舒适度有所提高，均分差异有统计学意义（p = 0.028）。结论：秋千干预对新生儿的应激和舒适水平无影响。
