Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Premature Infant Pain Profile

    P0-P2 units on a scale ; changes in PIPP from baseline (P0) to procedure (needle puncture, P2) PIPP (preterm infant pain profile) * min 0 \~ max 21 * higher pain scale on higher score

    first puncture of skin(P0), 10min after remifentanil infusion (P1), 15min after remifentanil infusion (needle puncture, P2), 10min after remifentanil stop

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Adverse Reaction

    during and after 10min of remifentanil continous infusion

Study Arms (2)

low dose remifentanil

EXPERIMENTAL

continuous infusion of remifentanil 0.1mcg/kg/min

Drug: low dose remifentanil

high dose remifentanil

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

continuous infusion of remifentanil 0.25mcg/kg/min

Drug: low dose remifentanil

Interventions

non-inferiority test for low dose remifentanil 0.1mcg/kg/min compared with high dose remifentanil 0.25mcg/kg/min in pain control

Also known as: high dose remifentanil
