ORALLY SWEETENERS BY SUCROSE 35% AND DEXTROSE 35% TO THE LEVEL OF PAIN DURING VENIPUNCTURE

Abstract

Introduction. Insertion a needle on the skin layer structure will impact to the neural responses of pain sensory receptors what make a pain’s sense to baby and make them would cry, struggle and irritable. That were inhibit the invasive process and aggravate the trauma in infants because of repeated procedures and hormonal responses that increase pain. The objective of this research was to know how difference orally sweetener administered by sucrose 35% and dextrose 35% to the level of pain during venous puncture. Method. There were three group in this study, the first one was the experimental group received oral treatment of 35% sucrose, the second was received 35% dextrose, and the last was control group. Data were analyzed by Mann Wheatney and Kruskal Wallis test. Results. The results showed there is no difference pain scale in control groups, sucrose 35% and dextrose 35% (p = 0.09). Discussion. There was lower pain in dextrose 35% group than the control group (mean = 5.8 to mean: 5.6). It was recommend for further investigation with a larger sample and measuring pain scale appropriate to the mice. Keywords: orally sweeteners, sucrose, dextrose, vein
