dc.description.abstractAim: Premature babies are vulnerable to environmental stress factors mostly in the first weeksof life. During this time, supportive positioning, especially used all-around the baby, makesthem feel better as if they are in utero. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect ofsupportive positioning on weight gain, vital signs, feeding intolerance, duration of ventilation,duration of hospitalization and comfort scale scores of the premature babies in neonatalintensive care unit.Material and Methods: A total of 50 premature infants were recruited into the studyrandomly, 25 in the supported group and 25 in the control group. The babies in the supportedgroup were nested with soft blankets and pillows as position material. There was no nesting orswaddling in the control group. Demographic findings, comfort scale scores, heart rate,respiratory rate and oxygen saturation of infants were recorded and compared.Results: Mean gestational weeks and birth weights of the supported and control groups were32.9±2.5 (26-36) vs. 32.7±2.8 (26-36) weeks (p=0.791) and 1554±492 (680-2380) vs.1772±439 (590-2375) g (p=0.105), respectively. Weight gain, ventilator days and days ofhospitalization were similar in groups, however mean oxygen saturation and comfort scalescores showing deep sedation were higher in the supported group (p=0,024, p<0,001,respectively) after daily care.Conclusion: Although supportive positioning does not have an effect on duration ofhospitalization, ventilation and weight gain, it has a positive effect on mean oxygen saturationand comfort scale scores of premature infants and recommended in newborn care.en_US
