What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Sucrose 24%Other

    According to the age of the newborn:

    24-26 weeks : 0.1 mL, 27-31weeks : 0.25 mL, 32-36 weeks : 0.5 mL, >37 weeks : 1 mL

Study groups in NCT05323071
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Control GroupActive comparatorSucrose will be administered 2 minutes before the puncture following the current protocol of the unit. Venous or arterial puncture will be performed only in case it is required for therapeutic or care purposes.
Receives: Other: Sucrose 24%
Experimental GroupExperimentalThe administration of the sucrose dose is started by means of a syringe. Once 50% of the dose has been administered, puncture will be performed. The remaining 50% will be administered during the puncture. The pacifier will be left in the mouth until the end of the procedure, facilitating the non-nutritive sucking of the neonate.
Receives: Other: Sucrose 24%

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pain during a painful procedure

    The primary variable is pain, and will be measured by the Premature Infant Pain Profile-Revised (PIPP-R) scale. The score ranges from 0 (no pain or minimal pain) to 21 (maximum pain).

    Measured: 15 seconds after extraction
