First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two easy methods—tapping the skin or applying a cold pack—to reduce pain when pregnant women get a tetanus vaccine. About 90 pregnant women will take part, and their pain levels and vital signs will be measured right after the shot and over the next two days. The goal is to find a simple, drug-free way to make vaccination more comfortable.
