Summary

This study looked at whether a mother's scent and a soft, knitted octopus toy could reduce pain in newborns who had a lack of oxygen at birth (asphyxia) and were receiving cooling treatment. The study included 45 full-term babies in intensive care. Researchers measured pain levels using a special scale to see if these comforting items helped.
