Abstract

Background and Purpose: Sensory STIMULATION is one of the basic needs of human beings, particularly, for growth and development. However, PRETERM INFANTs are deprived of KINESTHETIC STIMULATION due to limitations of nursing care and occasionally due to relative isolation periods. Also, painful and additional manipulations cause physiologic dystrophy (hypoxia and heartbeat changes). Therefore, this study was conducted to study the effects of field MASSAGE on the physiologic responses of PRETERM INFANTs and to assure its usage.Methods and Materials: The present study is a quasi-experimental research, conducted on 20 stable PRETERM INFANTs who were selected by purposive sampling. Field MASSAGE was given for 10 days, three 15-minute times in three hours. Heart rate, respiratory rate and O2 saturation were recorded in four phases: just prior to the initiation of the intervention as the baseline time; at the eighth minute after the onset of intervention as time 1; just after the termination of intervention (the 15th minute) as time 2; and finally five minutes later (20 minutes after the initiation) as times 3.Results: Mean heart rate was as follows: baseline time 133.29±0.58; time 1 was 139.68±0.54; time 2 was 133.31±0.57 and time 3 was 133.51±0.56. There was a significant difference between the four phases (p<0.001). Mean respiratory rate was 41.69±0.57 in the baseline time, 45.25±0.54 in time 1, 41.83±0.53 in time 2 and 41.92±0.54 in time 3, where there was a significant difference between the four phases (p<0.001). Also, mean O2 saturation was 96.46±0.08 for the baseline time, 96.37± 0.08 for time 1, 96.35±0.07 for time 2 and 96.45±0.07 for time 3, where a significant difference was observed between the four phases (p<0.005). Howerer, there were no significant differences in KINESTHETIC intervention between the first, second and third periods.Conclusion: The findings of the present study suggest that MASSAGE provokes the physiologic responses of PRETERM INFANTs. As the variations of these three variables fall into the acceptable range, it can be inferred that field MASSAGE is convenient with PRETERM INFANTs. Therefore, it is recommended for those who prescribe MASSAGE to be cautious and to closely monitor these variables particularly with small and physiologically fragile PRETERM INFANTs when providing any type of handling.
