This study aims to examine the effect of playing Brahms' lullaby during sponge bathing on neonatal comfort and physiological parameters in a neonatal intensive care unit. The main questions this study aims to answer are whether listening to Brahms' lullaby during sponge bathing improves neonatal comfort and stabilizes physiological parameters such as heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, and body temperature. Researchers will compare newborns who receive sponge bathing accompanied by Brahms' lullaby with those who receive routine sponge bathing without music. A total of 70 newborns who meet the inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to either an intervention group or a control group. Newborn comfort will be evaluated using the COMFORTneo Scale, and physiological parameters including heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, and body temperature will be recorded before and after bathing.
