“…This concept has also been applied to research examining the potential analgesic effects of low lighting. For instance, a study exploring the effects of covering newborns' eyes during a painful procedure revealed a significant reduction in infants' behavioural pain responses solely when the pain intervention was executed after the procedure, not during [50]. However, reductions in the physiological domains of pain, such as heart rate and SaO 2 levels, were not observed; therefore, further studies examining the analgesic effects of light in NICUs are warranted.…”

“…Jones et al [66] have found that in high stress contexts, biological and behavioural relationships are not seen (in contrary to strong relationships when infants show evidence of lower stress situations). Two other papers [50,55] suggested analgesic effects solely on pain-related behavioural expressions and not on the underlying physiology. Finally, it is important to recognize that there is large variability in infant pain responding.…”

“…Also, Alemdar and Ozdemir, [9] who investigated the effects of covering the eyes versus playing intrauterine sounds on premature infants' pain and physiological parameters during venipuncture reported that the practice of covering preterm infants' eyes during venipuncture positively affected their pain scores after venipuncture. Researchers thought that despite the development in the knowledge of pain management in NICU but there is a gap still remains According to the mean differences in the physiological parameter of PIPP, the study illustrated that the mean change of heart rate and oxygen saturation after venipuncture among massage group was the fewest mean changes.…”

Background: Evidence demonstrates that controlling pain in the preterm infants during the neonatal periods is improving physiological, behavioral and hormonal outcomes. Eye shield and massage may play an important role as a non-pharmacological pain management during venipuncture. Aim: Is to investigate effect of eye shield and massage on preterm infants' pain response during venipuncture. Patients and Methods:Time seriesquasi experimental research design was carried out on a randomized sample of 100 newborn infants attending the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) of El Manial University Hospital (Kasr Al Ainy), (30control group,30 eye shield group and 30 massage group). Neonatal assessment tool and Preterm Infant Pain Profile (PIPP) were utilized for data collection. Results: There was a significant mean difference between control, eye shield and massage groups regarding PIPP pain assessment scores in three time frames (before venipuncture T 0 , during T 1 and after T 2) at P˂ 0.00 but there wasn't a significant mean differences after 5 min (T 3). Massage group had the fewest mean PIPP score during four time frames (3.50±0.97 before venipuncture, 8.16±1.91 during venipuncture, 4.30±4.30 after venipuncture and 3.22±0.81 after 5 minutes of venipuncture). Conclusion: ANOVA indicated that massage and eye shield groups showed a significant reduction in preterm infant's pain response than control group during venipuncture but massage was more effective than eye shield. Recommendations: Further studies needed to evaluate the effect of massage in combination with eye shield on preterm infant pain response.

“…In another study carried out in premature babies of between 28‐33 weeks of gestation, a privation of visual stimuli during venipuncture reduced the level of pain of the patient after the intervention by 0.56 points according to the Neonatal Infant Pain Scale (NIPS). During puncture, the differences were not statistically significant (Alemdar & Özdemir, ; Lawrence et al, ).…”

Aim To evaluate the efficacy of the reduction of visual and auditory stimuli on pain during venipuncture in premature newborns of 32–36 weeks of gestation. Design Open, randomized, non‐blind parallel clinical trial. Method Study to take place at the neonatal intensive care unit of a University Hospital in 2019–2021. Fifty‐six recently born babies between 32‐36 weeks of gestation will participate. The dependent variable is the level of pain determined using the premature infant pain profile instrument. The intervention will be assigned randomly using the https://random.org software. Data analysis will be carried out using the IBM SPSS v.25 software assuming a level of significance of 5%. Discussion The evidence for the efficacy of reducing sensory stimulation and its effect on pain in minor procedures has not been studied in depth. There are no studies that evaluate the reduction of visual and auditory stimuli in a combined way. Impact It is easy to incorporate the reduction of visual and auditory stimuli into nursing practice. The results of this study could have a direct impact on clinical practice. Trial registered at https://clinicaltrials.gov: NCT04041635
