Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
Standard pain relief measures used in neonates such as oral sucrose, oral paracetamol, proparacaine eye drops, EBM, non nutritive sucking , swaddling, KMC etc may be inadequate in relieving pain associated with screening  for ROP.
Intranasal fentanyl is a standard analgesic used in children for severe pain.
We hypothesized that administration of fentanyl intranasally in addition to standard pain relief would result in a further 50 % reduction in Pain score (PIPP)in premature neonates undergoing ROP screening . 56 patients would  need to be recruited for a study power of 90% and two tailed alpha of 0.05.
