Pain management in the premature newborn in the neonatal intensive care unit: construction of a care bundle¹
Abstract
Objective: to develop a nursing care bundle for pain management in the premature newborn in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Method: methodological, quantitative, descriptive and exploratory research conducted in 2022. The bundle was built from three steps: integrative literature review; selection of care by a virtual working group with 4 nurses and 11 nursing technicians, which selected the care by a Likert scale, whose responses were analyzed through the Content Validity Index (CVI). Results: 20 articles were selected for an integrative review, from which twenty-two (22) non-pharmacological interventions emerged for the elaboration of the electronic questionnaire. The care bundle for management of premature pain in the NICU included: kangaroo position, touch interventions, facilitated containment, sweetened solutions associated with non-nutritive sucking and the modification of the environment combined with music therapy. Conclusion: the developed bundle has 3 individual care and 2 associated for the pain management in premature newborn in NICU, new studies will be necessary to promote the validation of the bundle, as well as the evaluation of its effectiveness in pain management and the implementation of the instrument in care.
