The study was designed as a randomized controlled experimental research with the purpose of determining the effect of distraction by using Virtual Reality Glasses, Kaleidoscope and Distraction Cards in reducing pain and anxiety during blood draw in children.
Many strategies have been developed for the prevention of to prevent procedural pain in pediatric emergency units where nurses play a vital role in patient comfort.Easy-to-use and inexpensive nonpharmacologic analgesic methods are important in emergency units.This study was conducted to determine the effect of cold spray and ice applied during venipuncture on the level of fear and pain in children ages 7-15. This randomized, controlled experimental study was conducted in the Pediatric Emergency Clinic of Istanbul Gaziosmanpaşa Training and Research Hospital between November 2021 7 and April 2022. The study was conducted with 96 children between the ages of 7 and 15 (cold spray group, ice group, and control group) who were scheduled to have venous access in the pediatric emergency clinic and met the sampling criteria. The Pediatric Emergency Clinic consists of 10 beds. Patients with complaints such as fever, vomiting, diarrhea, and seizures comprise the majority of those admitted to the clinic. In the Pediatric Emergency Clinic, intravenous interventions were performed in the injection room.
Data concerning the effectiveness od nutraceuticals in children with dyslipidemia are lacking. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the long-term use of a dietary supplement containing red yeast rice (RYR), combined with other natural compounds, in children and adolescents with hypercholesterolemia. A nutraceutical, containing RYR, polycosanols, coenzyme Q10, astaxanthin and folic acid (commercial name: Armolipid), was administered once-daily in 84 children/adolescents with moderate or severe hypercholesterolemia.
Enabling school-age children to evaluate the care they receive provides feedback on the quality of care by determining children's satisfaction with care, and gives important feedback on the quantity and quality of care. Evaluation of nursing care, emotions and behaviors from the perspective of children during the Covid-19 pandemic process will guide the improvement of the quality of care. As a result of the literature review on this subject, no research has been found, and it is thought that this research will contribute to the field. This research was conducted to evaluate nursing care and emotions from the perspective of hospitalized children during the Covid-19 pandemic process.
The general purpose of this project; "Physical Activity and Recreation School" for the evaluation of physical activity behaviors of individuals with physical disabilities between the ages of 6-18, to increase the level of knowledge and awareness of these individuals and their parents, and to enable individuals with special needs to experience sports activities in the company of health and sports professionals who are experts in their fields. is to arrange. This project consists of three main topics as evaluation, training and experimentation. During the evaluation phase, interactive roundtable activity, valid and reliable scales and physical assessments, and barriers and motivators for physical activity participation of individuals with special needs will be evaluated. A comprehensive interactive training seminar on physical activity will be held for individuals with special needs and parents during the training phase. In the experimentation phase, children and adolescents with special needs will participate in training programs that include exercise and sportive activities suitable for the determined physical activity barriers and motivators, and will have the opportunity to experience exercises and sportive activities that they have not experienced before. The results of this project will provide gains in the analysis and application of physical inactivity, which is seen as an important public health problem in our country, for individuals with special needs, and will also guide many relevant institutions, health professionals and educators.
During general anesthesia, objective monitoring for analgesia is still lacking. The administration of opioids relies on the experience of the anesthesiologist. There are some monitors, e.g., Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI), showing that they can evaluate analgesia in adults. Recently, a Newborn Infant Parasympathetic Evaluation (NIPE) monitor was released for assessing analgesia in children with age less than 2 years. The investigators aim to assess the efficacy of NIPE as a guide for intraoperative fentanyl administration in children under 2 years.
Purpose: To determine the effect of 8-week kids yoga training on balance, reaction time and agility on children diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Method: A randomized controlled trial. The intervention (kids yoga) was an 8-week program administered to children attending a special education center by a yoga instructor occupational therapist. Outcomes included Pediatric Balance Scale, Bruininks-Oseretsky Motor Proficiency Test-Short Form, and Microgate Witty SEM System assessed at baseline and at the end of 8th week.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to examine fruit and vegetable consumption in preschoolers following a nutrition education curriculum. The main questions it aims to answer is: 1. Is this intervention consisting of nutrition education and taste-test activities able to improve fruit and vegetable consumption in preschoolers during their usual lunch meal? 2. Is the improvement of fruit and vegetable consumption sustained for at least 6 weeks after completion of the intervention? Participants in the intervention classroom will partake in 3 nutrition education sessions per week during the 6-week-long curriculum. Researchers will compare this to changes in fruit and vegetable intake of the children in the control classroom, who will undergo identical measurements, but will not participate in the curriculum.
Caudal block (CB) has been the method used for years to achieve adequate postoperative analgesia in pediatric patients, which is one of the main responsibilities of an anesthetist. CB, which has been proven to provide effective analgesia for many different indications, is the most commonly performed neuraxial block technique for postoperative pain control in urogenital surgeries. However, in the following years, truncal nerve blocks are recommended for postoperative analgesia by the literature both for more effective analgesia and for preventing complications of CB that may prevent early mobilization and prolong hospital discharge
