Stimuli Reduction
Usual Care
This group will receive reduced visual and auditory stimuli in addition to usual care during venipuncture. Phototherapy goggles and earmuffs will be placed 3 minutes before the venipuncture (leaving the patient in resting state after the manipulation) and will be maintained during the procedure. Monitor alarms and devices will be silenced and will remain silenced and noise in the unit will be minimized during the procedure.
Babies in the control group will receive physical contention with administration of sucrose two minutes before carrying out the venipuncture procedure (usual care). Venipuncture will be performed with 22G extraction needles, or peripheric venous catheter. During the puncture the eyes will not be covered, and monitor alarms and devices be not be silenced.
