Objective To compare the effects of swaddled bathing and traditional tub bathing on first-time bathing of newborns, in order to explore a more suitable way of individualized newborn bathing. Methods A total of 60 newborns admitted to the Obstetrics Department of the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from May to July 2021, were enrolled in this study and were randomly assigned by computer to swaddled bathing group(n=30) and traditional tub bathing group(n=30). The Neonatal Stress Scale(NSS) was used to assess stress levels, and physiological parameters were measured, including body temperature, respiratory rate, heart rate and oxygen saturation before bathing, immediately after, and 10 minutes after bathing. The bathing time and crying time during bathing between the two groups were recorded and compared. Results For immediately after bathing, and 10 minutes after bathing, the body temperature(t=2.21,5.11) and oxygen saturation(t=4.59,5.00) of newborns in swaddled bathing group were higher than those in traditional tub bathing group(P<0.05), while the heart rate(t=-3.17,-6.20), respiratory rate(t=-7.92,-5.67) and the NSS score(t=-5.91,-3.42) of newborns in swaddled bathing group were significantly lower than those in traditional tub bathing(P<0.05). The crying time of newborns in traditional tub bathing group was significantly longer than that in swaddled group(t=-7.06, P<0.05). Conclusions The swaddled bathing does better in maintaining the stability of the physiological parameters of full-term newborns, and can also reduce bathing pressure.Therefore, swaddled bathing can be used in first-time bathing of full-term newborns,which is beneficial to their early healthy development.
