Abstract
Objective: This randomized controlled trial was conducted to investigate the effect of a musical snow globe on reducing pain associated with vaccine administration in infants 2-6 months of age.
Method: The sample of the study consisted of 78 infants (experimental group (EG):39, control group (CG): 39 babies) who applied to the family health center between the specified dates and met the case selection criteria. The Face, Legs, Activity, Crying, and Comfort (FLACC) Scale was used to assess infants' pain before, during, and after immunization. Heart rate and oxygen saturation in the infants' blood were measured as part of the study. During vaccine administration, infants in the experimental group were shown a snow globe with music, while infants in control group were vaccinated with a routine health application.
Results: There was no statistically significant difference (p>.05) between the SpO2 values before the interventions (EG: 99.46 CG: 99.56) and the SpO2 values after the interventions (EG: 96.30 CG: 96.05) of the babies in the experimental and control groups; In heart rates, there was no statistically significant difference (p>.05) between befoere the interventions (EG:127.31 CG:127.71) and after the interventions (EG:140.10 CG:147.66) values. However, a significant difference was found between SpO2 (EG: 95.20 CG: 93.23) and heart rate values (EG: 145.76 CG: 157.33) during the intervention (p.05); however, the FLACC scores of the infants in the experimental group were lower than the infants in the control group at the time of the intervention (EG: 3.89 CG: 6.92) (p
