The Effect of Wiping and Swaddling Bath Methods Applied in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit on Neonatal Comfort: a Randomized Controlled Trial

"Swaddled Bath Intervention:~In the swaddled bath group, infants are gently wrapped in a soft towel or blanket to maintain a flexed position. They are then immersed in warm water at an appropriate temperature to regulate body temperature. This intervention is designed to reduce stress and pain, particularly for premature infants, and helps to relax the baby's muscles, stabilize body temperature, and increase overall comfort. It is expected to show a more significant effect on physiological and behavioral stabilization than less invasive methods.~Wipe Bath Intervention:~In the wipe bath group, infants are gently wiped with a cloth soaked in warm water. This method is less invasive than the swaddled bath, aiming to maintain body temperature while providing a milder level of relaxation. The wipe bath is effective for skin cleansing but may not provide the same comfort or stress-reducing effects as the swaddled bath. The expected physiological effects, such as body temperature stabilizatio"
