Filter by:The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to examine the effectiveness of immersive virtual reality (IVR) and music on children's anxiety, fear, and pain levels during circumcision surgery. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: 1. Are immersive virtual reality and music interventions effective in reducing children's anxiety and fear levels during circumcision surgery? 2. Are immersive virtual reality and music interventions effective in reducing children's pain levels during circumcision surgery? There were three groups in the study: control group (n:24), immersive virtual reality group (n:24), and music group (n:24). The control group did not undergo any intervention and only the routine procedure of the clinic was performed. The participants in the immersive virtual reality group played an interactive video game. The participants in the music group listened to music of their preference.
Children may be exposed to acute and chronic illnesses during their development and may experience negative emotions and They may be exposed to experiences. For the purpose of diagnosis and treatment in a child admitted to hospital due to illness blood sampling causes pain and anxiety. To reduce pain and anxiety pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic methods are preferred in children. Nonpharmacologic methods supportive, cognitive and physical, although they are more preferred than pharmacological methods in order to classify them as such. Various methods are used within the scope of these classifications, among which The method of distraction is more preferred. This study is based on distraction the effect of the clown, which is one of the methods, on pain and anxiety during blood sampling. to determine the impact of the project. It is planned to be conducted as a randomized controlled study and in this study, 5-12 years old with children between the ages of 18 and 18, and the Pediatric Outpatient Clinic at Necmettin Erbakan University Faculty of Medicine. It was planned to be conducted in the blood collection unit. Minimum number of children to be included in the study The intervention group was planned as 28 and the control group as 28, but due to the possibility of data loss, 15 To collect more data, the number of children to be recruited for both groups is targeted to be 32-33. Children will be randomly assigned to the groups and the assignment to the groups will be based on 'stratification and blocked randomization methods' were planned to be used. Sociodemographic characteristics in data collection form, Wong-Baker Faces Pain Scale (WBFPS), Child Anxiety Scale-Dispositional (CAS-D) scales were planned to be used. Obtaining necessary institutional permissions by the researcher and project advisor It is planned to start the project after it is ensured. Research data were collected through face-to-face interviews with the 'Informed Consent Form'. Family 'Informed Voluntary Consent Form' about the research will be informed. In the intervention group, the blood collection process will be carried out with foamy bubbles accompanied by a clown. by playing with the parents. No treatment was applied to the control group and the parents blood sampling will be performed in the presence of the child. Both groups will be administered the WBFPS and CAS-D scales, will be administered by both the researcher and the parent. The research results to be obtained will be published in international SSCI and/or SCI publishing them as scientific articles in journals, organizing national and international conferences, symposiums and contributing to the literature as a result of being presented in seminars, raising awareness in this field, creating a It is aimed to shed light on future research.
The aim of this study was to evaluate watching video about procedure on reduce anxiety and fear in children before the endoscopy.
This research adopts the uniform parallel hybrid research design; The quantitative data and qualitative data were collected at the same time, and then the quantitative and qualitative data were analyzed respectively. Finally, the two data sets were combined. Comprehensive interpretation of the study issues through complementarity and mutual validation of quantitative and qualitative data.
This study aims to investigate the changes in saliva and dental plaque pH after consuming sugar-free chewing gum containing 5% of aqueous propolis in children aged between 8-11 years. The studied sample will be divided into two groups: Group A (Control group) placebo chewing gum, and Group B (Experimental group) aqueous propolis chewing gum. All children will experience both types of chewing gum with an interval of 1 week between the two studied groups.
NIRS estimates tissue saturation of oxygenation in tissue beds. Animals studies suggested that transscrotal NIRS measurements can quantify testicular hypoxia and differentiate between torsed and non torsed testicles. The results of human studies are not conclusive. The hypothesis is that the difference in NIRS values between torsed and healthy testicles would not be zero and that this difference would be zero in control group and that NIRS could help to detect rapidly a TT Testicular torsion (TT) is a functional emergency. The diagnosis is sometimes difficult to make. No paraclinical examination can eliminate it with certainty. The investigators aimed to evaluate the interest of transscrotal near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) for the diagnosis of TT of child
In this study, investigators aimed to develop and validate a risk score to predict severe outcomes (e.g., mortality and ICU admission) in children who were admitted to the Children's Hospital of Fudan University between 2017 and 2022 due to community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). The objectives were as follows. 1. Develop a risk prediction model based on demographic, comorbidity, clinical characteristics, laboratory data, and chest radiographic reports to predict severe outcomes among children hospitalized with CAP; 2. Develop a risk scoring system and determine the cut-off point; 3. Externally validate the easy-to-use risk score.
The goal of this observational study is to pilot test the Home-Based Child Care Toolkit for Nurturing School-Age Children (HBCC-NSAC Toolkit) with providers of home-based child care. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1) the extent to which the questionnaires contained in the HBCC-NSAC Toolkit are a reliable and valid measure of HBCC quality and 2) the extent to which the statements and questions in the Toolkit are appropriate for HBCC providers with diverse characteristics and for families who receive care from an HBCC provider. Participants will complete the questionnaires in the Toolkit and participate in cognitive interviews about the questionnaires.
It is emphasized in the studies that the child and parent anxiety that occurs in pediatric surgery should be prevented or reduced. According to previous studies, one way to reduce child and parent anxiety in the preoperative process is distraction interventions the child and family with preoperative family-centered activities. Teaching children anxiety coping skills with the involvement of their parents can reduce preoperative anxiety. This study was planned to Comparison of the effectiveness of two different distraction interventions (distraction with play dough- distraction with kaleidoscope) in reducing preoperative anxiety of children and parents who are scheduled for elective surgery
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the knowledge, skills, and motivation of parents regarding management of epileptic seizures, by developing a "Virtual Reality Based Seizure Management Education Program for Parents (VR-ESMEPP). Method: This study is a double-blinded, pretest-posttest, observational randomized controlled study. The administration stage of the study was conducted between September 2018-February 2020 with parents of 91 children who were diagnosed with epilepsy and were being followed in the Pediatric Neurology Outpatient Department of Akdeniz University Hospital. The parents were distributed into groups with simple randomization (VR Group n=45-Control Group n=46). During the preparation stage of the study, data collection tools "Management-of-Epileptic Seizure-Training-Program-Prepared-with-Virtual-Reality-Technology" and "Patient Scenario Regarding Secondary Generalized Tonic-Clonic Epileptic Scenario with Aura" were prepared and integrated into the virtual reality glasses. In the administration stage, the intervention group was administered the pretest, then the training program, and a posttest immediately following the training. The participants were monitored on the 15th day. For the control group, a pretest, routine outpatient clinical practices, and a posttest were carried out; and the participants were monitored on day 15. In both groups, data were obtained with data collection tools that were integrated into the virtual reality glasses. An approval from the Ethics Committee of Akdeniz University, a written permission from the Akdeniz University Hospital, and informed consent from the parents were obtained to conduct the study.
