Non-pharmaceutical intervention and pain management situation for neonatal analgesia


Cite

Non-pharmaceutical interventions for neonatal pain.

MethodsMajor effectsUse in painful procedures
Sweet oral solutions (sucrose or glucose)

Reduce behavioral pain response and composite pain scores.

Decrease duration of cry.

Stabilize changes of HR, SpO2.

Full term neonates

Preterm neonates

Sucrose: small volumes of 24% (0.1–0.3 ml for preterm neonates and 1–2 ml for term neonates)

Glucose: 1ml of 25% or 50% solutions

Concerns: potential neurological adverse effects for repeated use of sucrose in preterm infants

Grade of recommendation: strong

NNS

Lower pain scores (PIPP)

Lower frequency of stress-related behaviors, abnormal rates, oxygen saturation.

Preterm neonates

Full term neonates

At least performing 3 min before painful procedure

Grade of recommendation: strong

Breastfeeding

Reduce pain scores

Lower increase in heart rate

Reduce cry time

Term infants

Starting 2 min before and continuing the procedure

Grade of recommendation: strong

FT

Reduce pain perceptions

Term infants

Performing during the procedure, such as received vaccination, and safe in mechanically ventilated neonates

Grade of recommendation: strong

KMC

PIPP

Shorter time to recovery

Lower facial actions

Reduce cry time

Useful for very preterm neonates preterm neonates

Grade of recommendation: strong

Swaddling

Stabilization for heart rates, oxygen saturation

PIPP

Preterm infants

Grade of recommendation: strong

Heel warming

Reduce pain response

Improve pain recovery

Preterm infants

Usually use before a heel stick

Grade of recommendation: strong

SS

Reduce pain scores (ABC) scale)

Term neonates

Grade of recommendation: strong

Music therapy

Stabilize HR, SaO2, pain

Improve physiological and behavioral parameters

Preterm neonates

Term neonates

Play familiar music of fetal period, light music or their mother's voice

Grade of recommendation: weak
