The Effect of Mother's Voice, Music Voice and White Noise Methods on Pain and Physical Parameters during Venipuncture in Newborn: A Randomized Controlled Study

Aim: The study was conducted to determine the effect of recorded mother's voice, music voice and white noise methods during the venipuncture procedure on pain level and physiological parameters in newborns. Material and Methods: The study was a randomized controlled trial. The sample of the study consist of 80 newborns (recorded mother’s voice group=20, music voice group=20, white noise=20, control group=20), according to the result of the power analysis. During the venipuncture process, the newborns in the experimental group were listened to the recorded mother's voice, music voice and white noise, while the newborns in the control group were only given routine venipuncture. Results: When the research results were evaluated, it was determined that the pain levels of the newborns in the recorded mother's voice, music voice and white noise groups were significantly lower during and after the procedure compared to the control group (p
