OBJECTIVE: Assess healthcare professionals' perspectives on how implemented measures impact patient comfort during targeted neonatal echocardiography (TNE). STUDY DESIGN: Survey distributed to neonatal healthcare professionals at the Montreal Children's Hospital NICU. Responses were collected for four weeks, anonymized and analyzed using descriptive statistics. RESULTS: Of 110 respondents, most believed that scans in general disturbed infants (71%) by increasing the risk of hypothermia (75%) and lability (67%). Key comfort measures identified were warm gel (85%), bundling (80%), and a focused exam (<
30 minutes) (80%). Neoclassical music recordings were valued for their calming effect on the infant (73%), parent (44%), and sonographer (39%). Respondents preferred recorded music over other forms of music delivery (53%). CONCLUSION: Healthcare workers generally agree that scans disturb newborns and that implementing comfort measures, such as music and the cost-efficient bundle used in our NICU, may enhance patient comfort. Further objective studies are needed to validate these findings and assess their impact on neonatal care outcomes Keywords: music, targeted neonatal echocardiography, ultrasound, comfort, neonatology.
