Brief Summary
Endotracheal aspiration is a necessary procedure performed by nurses in neonatal intensive care units to increase oxygenation and remove secretions from the airways. It is one of the painful procedures that most frequently causes stress in intubated newborns.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
Pain score
differences in pain between open and closed suctioning systems
Pain will be evaluated before, during and 30 minutes after each suction procedure.
Oxygen saturation
differences in oxygen saturation between open and closed suctioning systems
Oxygen saturation will be evaluated before, during and 30 minutes after each suction procedure
Heart rate
differences in heart rate between open and closed suctioning systems
Heart rate will be evaluated before, during and 30 minutes after each aspiration procedure
Study Arms (1)
Experimental and A control group
EXPERIMENTALEach patient will be evaluated as both the experimental and control group. In line with the patient's aspiration needs, two different suction methods will be applied and the effects of the methods will be evaluated on the same patient. In the study, open suction applied to the patient will be considered as the control group, and closed suction will be considered as the experimental group. The first suction of the same patient during the day will be performed as open suction, and the second suction will be performed as closed suction. Pain and physiological parameters will be evaluated before, during and 30 minutes after each sucking session.
Interventions
Each patient will be evaluated as both the experimental and control group. In the study, open suction applied to the patient will be evaluated as control, and closed suction will be considered as the experimental group. The first suction of the same patient during the day will be done as open suction, and the second suction will be done as closed suction.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Newborns monitored with mechanical ventilation
- Newborn who need suctioning,
- Newborn who did not undergo painful procedures one hour before aspiration.
- Hemodynamically stable newborn;
You may not qualify if:
- Newborn with any facial/skull deformities
- Newborn with chromosomal/genetic abnormalities
