Abstract

Infant mortality is the death that is occurred after born until exactly before
one year old baby. The number of Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) is always
being a medical concern in the world, especially in developing countries. It
is in
uenced by many factors, however in broad outline, there are two causes
of this mortality; endogenous and exogenous. Preventing diagnosis mistake
of infant pain is one of any efforts to reduce the infant mortality rate. The
difference of infant's face expression in pain is able to be identified not only
by seeing and watching, but also assessing any characteristic parameters. This
problem encourages research on the pain identification of infant facial expres-
sions. This study is aim to distinguish infant's face that showing the pain
or not by analyzing some change in their face using Ganglion Cells working
principles with nCRF mechanism and Neonatal Facial Coding System (NFCS)
indicators.
The research design was an early phase and exploratory study. There was
two groups, pre-operative infants and post-operative infants. There are several
ways of infant pain identification in medical, Neonate Facial Coding System
(NFCS) is one which focuses in face. Pain assessment in infants with NFCS
has ten indicators, but the last indicator did not happen to full term infants.
Five of nine indicators are selected in this study, include brow lowering, eyes
squeezed shut, mouth stretch, and lip pursuing. This research find that GC's
nCRF is able to generate some features of NFCS pain assessment in five facial
actions that commonly occur in pain infants.
