Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Chloral hydrate, chloral hydrate--promethazine and chloral hydrate -hydroxyzine efficacy in electroencephalography sedation.
To compare efficacy and safety of chloral hydrate (CH), chloral hydrate and promethazine (CH + P) and chloral hydrate and hydroxyzine (CH + H) in electroencephalography (EEG) sedation. ⋯ Combination of chloral hydrate-antihistamines can be used as the most effective and safe sedation regimen in drug induced sleep electroencephalography of kids.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Effect of oil massage on growth in preterm neonates less than 1800 g: a randomized control trial.
To study the effect of oil massage on growth in preterm babies less than 1800 g. ⋯ Oil application has a potential to improve weight gain and cause less weight loss in first 7 d in low birth weight neonates.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Role of sucrose in reducing painful response to orogastric tube insertion in preterm neonates.
To study whether orogastric tube (OGT) insertion elicits a painful response in preterm neonates, and the role of oral sucrose in reducing this pain. ⋯ OGT insertion causes pain in preterms and single dose lingual 24 % sucrose may alleviate this pain.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Kangaroo Mother Care in reducing pain in preterm neonates on heel prick.
To determine the effect of Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) of small duration of 15 min in decreasing pain in preterm neonates between 32-36 wk 6 d on heel prick by a 26 gauge needle. ⋯ The findings suggest that short duration KMC (15 min) has stress reducing benefits. Preterm neonates above 32 wk gestational age can benefit from KMC to decrease pain from heel prick procedure.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Bubble vs conventional continuous positive airway pressure for prevention of extubation failure in preterm very low birth weight infants: a pilot study.
To compare the efficacy of bubble and conventional nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in preventing extubation failure (EF) in preterm infants. ⋯ The possibility that bubble CPAP may be associated with reduced EF as suggested in this pilot study requires further investigation in an adequately powered multicentric study.
