Abstract

The research was an experimental research conducted in one group pretest posttest
design for both control and treatment group. The objective of the research was to compare
the calmness of newborn babies who had respiratory distress and had been treated with
loving gloves to those who received the normal treatment. The comparison was focusing at
the heart rate, the oxygen level in body and the length of sleeping period. The subjects were
40 newborn babies who suffered from tachypnea after being delivered and were diagnosed
as respiratory distress patients. The subjects were selected through purposive sampling
technique. The control group was treated with normal treatment procedure while the experimental
group was treated with the normal treatment procedure and treated with loving gloves
technique. The experimental tools were loving gloves, personal data record, and forms for
recording the heart rate, the oxygen level in body and the length of sleeping period. The
statistics used in the research were percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The mean
scores from the two groups were then compared using t-test. The results showed that
using loving gloves reduced the heart rate and lengthen the sleep duration with a statistical
significance (t = 0.02, 0.00 respectively). The result also reflected that the use of the loving
gloves increased the oxygen level in the body with no statistical significance (t = 0.13).
