Abstract

The study suggests that integration of mother's breast milk odor or taste, heartbeat sounds, and tactile non-nutritive sucking should be considered as an intervention for alleviation of procedural pain for preterm infants. Clinicians should incorporate the integrated sensory intervention into caregiving support for preterm infants undergoing short painful procedures.
