Treatment and study plan

Vibrocompression and aspiration of secretions

Other

The 20 children, study participants will be randomly assigned to different groups, where 10 children will be evaluated during vibrocompression maneuver, and another 10 will be assessed on the aspiration procedure. Randomization will be performed using an opaque envelope for specifying which group selection technique is evaluated.

Primary outcomes

  1. Assess whether there is pain in children when performed randomized technique

    Time frame: two years

    Rate NIPS - Infant Pain Scale

Secondary outcomes

  1. Assess whether there is stress in children during the technical run

    Time frame: two years

    Biochemical analysis of cortisol and salivary amylase

Other outcomes

  1. Correlate the pain and the stress generated.

    Time frame: two yars

    Also assess heart rate, respiratory rate, and oxygen saturation.
