Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Evaluate the heart rate variability, measured by the cardiofrequencimeter in heartbeat interval, considering the variables SDNN, SDANN, SDNNi, rMSSD and pNN50, a very low frequency and ultra low frequency component; 2) Low frequency component; 3) High frequency component and Chaos Theory. The evaluations will take place at rest for 60 seconds, during the intervention and 60 seconds after the intervention.<br>The variables will be checked even during hospitalization in the neonatal intensive care unit or rooming-in and after 1 month of hospital discharge;Assess the respiratory rate, considered as a measure of the amount of breath per minute that will be obtained at rest, during the application of the techniques and after the procedure by counting the breath with a timer for 60 seconds.<br>The variables will be checked even during hospitalization in the neonatal intensive care unit or rooming-in and after 1 month of hospital discharge.
