Effect of multisensory intervention combined with positioning care on procedural pain in neonates in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)
多感官干预联合体位护理在新生儿重症监护病房（NICU）新生儿操作性疼痛中的应用效果

摘要

目的 在新生儿重症监护病房（NICU）中，探究多感官干预、体位护理的具体内容、应用效果及对新生儿操作性疼痛的影响。方法 本项研究选取80例新生儿作为研究对象，经调查，均为我院NICU收治，纳入时间介于2025年3月至2026年3月，按照奇偶数字法分组后，每组纳入40例；其中，常规护理为对照组提供，多感官干预、体位护理为实验组提供，比较效果。结果 （1）护理前，NIPS评分比较无差异，P＞0.05；护理干预后，实验组VS对照组，更低，P＜0.05；（2）NICU护理操作过程中，关于新生儿哭闹持续时间、生命体征恢复平稳时间比较，实验组更短，P＜0.05；（3）不良事件发生率方面，NICU新生儿的统计数据为：17.50%、2.50%，比较结果得出：实验组更低，P＜0.05。结论 NICU管理过程中，多感官干预、体位护理的结合意义重大，对于新生儿来说，能够较好地减轻操作性疼痛，可缩短哭闹持续时间、生命体征恢复平稳时间，更为重要的是，该项护理的开展可降低新生儿不良事件发生率，在临床上有较高安全性，值得推广。

Abstract

Objective To explore the specific content, application effects, and impact on procedural pain in neonates of multisensory intervention and positioning care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).
Methods This study enrolled 80 neonates as subjects, all admitted to our NICU between March 2025 and March 2026. Participants were randomly divided into two groups using an odd-even number method, with 40 in each group. The control group received standard care, while the experimental group received both multisensory intervention and positioning care; outcomes were then compared.
Results (1) Before nursing intervention, there was no significant difference in NIPS scores between the two groups (P > 0.05); after intervention, the experimental group showed significantly lower scores than the control group (P < 0.05). (2) During NICU procedures, the experimental group had significantly shorter durations of crying and faster stabilization of vital signs compared to the control group (P < 0.05). (3) Regarding adverse event rates, the incidence was 17.50% in the control group and 2.50% in the experimental group, indicating a significantly lower rate in the experimental group (P < 0.05).
Conclusion   Integrating multisensory intervention with positioning care during NICU management is highly beneficial. It effectively reduces procedural pain in neonates, shortens crying duration and time to stabilize vital signs, and most importantly, lowers the incidence of adverse events. This approach demonstrates high clinical safety and is worthy of wider implementation.
