Survey the Effect of Foot Reflexology on Physiological Indices, Pain Level and Crying of Infants under Vaccination

Determination the effect of foot reflexology on physiological indices , pain level and crying of infants under vaccination

Clinical trial with control and sham groups, With parallel groups, one blind randomized, with 90 samples

Comprehensive health venter number 7 in Rasht;In the intervention group each leg will undergo a general massage in order to warm up,for one minute.Then the researcher will massage the area of the thighs on the foot of each foot for 15 minutes (a total of 30 minutes per infant).The infants of the sham group will receive massage at the neutral point (under the ankle foot).For the control group, the vaccine will be performed without any intervention, as usual in the center; participate does not know which of the three groups belong.

Entry criteria:Age 2 to 7 months, being in a normal percentile of weight and height growth when receiving a vaccine, being term , to be calm and crying infant before receiving the vaccine, not taking acetaminophen or any other analgesic drug 3 hours before vaccination, not having a history of hospitalization, Lack of diseases such as thyroid disorders, epilepsy, Cardiovascular disease and acute disease that reduces the level of consciousness of the child, not have bad sleep or sleeplessness before inject the vaccine,the temperature between 37.2-36 °

In the intervention group each leg will undergo a general massage in order to warm up.Then the researcher will massage the area of the thighs on the foot of each foot .The infants of the sham group will receive massage at the neutral point (under the ankle foot).For the control group, the vaccine will be performed without any intervention, as usual in the center

Pain level, physiological indices (heart rate and arterial oxygen saturation), crying time

At first, samples with entry criteria will be census sampled and Then randomly sampled using ABCABC permutation blocks with six blocks.As the letter "C" as the control group, the letter "B" will be considered as the sham group and the letter "A" will be considered as the intervention group.Blocks will be recorded and drawn in all possible scenarios.So that each lottery block is randomly selected and the block obtained after registration is returned to the lottery box.Sampling will continue to reach the sample size determined in each group (30 people). To create sequences after registering different states and possible three letters A, B and C in blocks 6 and placement of each letter in separate sheets, placed in the next step of the paper in the container and using a lottery randomly each time one of the sheets was dropped out of the container and the letters on it were written in sequence, and the desired sheet was returned to the container again.The number of times the lottery will be determined after specifying the sample number will be specified,So that Each time the letters on the tab will be added along with the previous letters in the same order.To create random assignments, the following software can also be used: Random allocatin software. The next step is to hide the closed envelopes.In such a way that each of the designated letters is assigned a number to the number of specified sample sizes and the letter is placed inside an envelope and the number of that letter will be written on the envelope. The method of assigning samples to each intervention, sham and control group is that by selecting any infant who has the criteria for entering the study, one of these packs will be opened, respectively, the word in the envelope indicates that infant should be in which of the groups.

The participant does not know which of the three groups is the intervention, sham or control.
