Protocol summary

Summary
This study is a cross-over clinical trial which will conducted with the aim of comparison the pain and physiological changes in two methods of blood sampling from the vein of head and the vein of hand in healthy preterm infants with 28-30 weeks and 30-32 weeks gestational age. Forty samples in two groups would be studied. In the first group, initial blood sampling will be done through the vein of hand and the further blood sampling in the next day will be done through the vein of head. In the second group of infants, blood sampling will be done in reverse. The pain score will be measured. To assess the physiological parameters including heart rate and oxygen saturation, the monitor would be used. Recording time of interventions will be 2 minutes before to 6 minutes after blood sampling.

Intervention groups

1

Description
Eligible infants who need for venous sampling in fourth to eighth days of their birth will be entered to study with convenience sampling method and recruited into two groups randomly. In the first group, first blood sampling through the vein of hand (Cephalic and Basilic veins and dorsal venous plexus back of the hand), the next day blood sampling through the vein of head (Superficial temporal vein in the side of the head and supratrochlear vein in the frontal part of the skull) will be use. For blood sampling from the vein of head, head circumference at the upper part of the eyebrows will be closed with a soft rubber band (Coban) with 1.5 cm of diameter, and for taking blood from the vein of the back of the hand, restriction will be performed via colleague’s hand. Blood sampling will be carried out in direction of blood flow using Bio.Flon IV (No#24) with angle of 15 to 20 degrees in head vein and 25 to 45 degrees in hand vein. Trying to sampling will not be more than once. Pain score will be measured using pain scale. To investigate the physiological indices, a monitor device will be attached to the baby's foot, and heart rate and percentage of arterial oxygen saturation, will be monitored throughout the study. In this study, to record the behavioral and physiological responses to pain two recording devices will be used. One of recording devices will be fixed to monitor to record the pyisiological responses and the next recording device will be focused the baby’s face and limbs to record its behavioral responses.

Description
In Newborns of second group, blood sampling will be reversely; in which the first blood sampling will be done through the veins of head(Superficial temporal vein in the side of the head and supratrochlear vein in the frontal part of the skull), and the further blood sampling will be done through hand veins (Cephalic and Basilic veins and dorsal venous plexus back of the hand), in next day. For blood sampling from the vein of head, head circumference at the upper part of the eyebrows will be closed with a soft rubber band (Coban) with 1.5 cm of diameter, and for taking blood from the vein of the back of the hand, restriction will be performed via colleague’s hand. Blood sampling will be carried out in direction of blood flow using Bio.Flon IV (No#24) with angle of 15 to 20 degrees in head vein and 25 to 45 degrees in hand vein. Trying to sampling will not be more than once. Pain score will be measured using pain scale.
