Clinical Trial Summary

In this study, the effect of the therapeutic game applied before treatment on pain, fear, anxiety and physiological parameters and the satisfaction of the parents was investigated.


Description:

Therapeutic play is defined as activities structured in accordance with children's age and development, or as a set of interventions to improve the well-being of children in the hospital environment. This method reduces the stress of illness or hospitalization, uses play as a means of self-expression and supports the development of positive coping mechanisms in pediatric patients. In the literature, it is seen that therapeutic play methods such as listening to music, drawing, reading stories, puppets, dolls, virtual reality tools, cartoon applications, watching videos and playing video games are used to reduce the child's pain and anxiety about invasive procedures. Studies conducted to reduce the interactions between children in the same environment during their treatment and care are quite limited. No study has been found to examine the effect of methods that jointly block/reduce vision and hearing during treatment and care on anxiety, fear and pain in children treated together in pediatric clinics.

Study Design


Intervention

Behavioral:
Video game with headset
Half an hour before the first treatment in the morning, the screens around the patients' beds were closed by the researcher. The child was asked to choose one of the introduced games and the game he/she chose from the tablet was turned on. Children were asked to wear headphones for sound isolation and the sound was adjusted at the appropriate decibel setting. Half an hour before the treatment, children were allowed to play the video game until the treatment without any different warning. Physiologic Parameter Assessment Form, Child Anxiety and Fear Scale, Child Pain Scale were filled by the researcher 1 minute before and 1 minute after the procedure. Finally, Parental Satisfaction Scale was completed at the end of the intervention.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Descriptive Characteristics Information Form A descriptive characteristics information form for parents and children was prepared by the researchers in line with the literature and the data of both the experimental and control groups were collected before the intervention. First measurement: 30 minute before treatment
Primary Physiological Parameter Monitoring Form The descriptive characteristics form was based on a literature review by the investigator. Heart rate (min), oxygen saturation (SpO2%), blood pressure (mmHg) and respiratory rate (min) were measured 1 minute before treatment administration. First measurement: 1 minute before treatment
Primary Children's State Anxiety and Children's Fear Scale Children's State Anxiety and Children's Fear Scale was developed by McMurtry et al. in 2011. The scale was designed to measure the fear levels of children aged 4-10 years. The scale was translated into Turkish by Gerçeker et al. in 2018 and the validity-reliability coefficient was found to be 0.89. The scale score is formed by scoring five drawn facial expressions (0=no fear to 4=severe fear) shown visually to the child. Anxiety and fear scores of the child were scored one minute before the treatment. First measurement: 1 minute before treatment
Primary Visual Analog Scale Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was developed by Wong and Baker in 1988. Patients' pain levels are evaluated by scoring with facial expressions. It is used in children who have the ability to communicate and are conscious. The scale has 6 faces that are scored between 0 and 5. In scoring, the child chooses the face that best expresses him/her and "0" indicates no pain, "1" indicates a little pain, "2" indicates a little more pain, "3" indicates more pain, "4" indicates quite a lot of pain and "5" indicates the most severe pain level. One minute before the treatment, the child's pain is scored by VAS. First measurement: 1 minute before treatment
Primary PedsQL Health Care Satisfaction Scale The PedsQL Health Care Satisfaction Scale was developed by J.W. Varni in 1999. Turkish adaptation of the scale was conducted by Ulus and Kublay in 2012. The scale consists of 25 items with 6 subheadings: emotional support, information, general satisfaction, communication, family involvement and technical skills. The scale is on a five-point scale and each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 4 and is evaluated as "Never satisfied (0)", "Sometimes satisfied (1)", "Most of the time satisfied (2)", "Almost always satisfied (3)" and "Always satisfied (4)". A high score indicates an increase in parental satisfaction. First measurement: After treatment
Secondary Physiological Parameter Monitoring Form Heart rate (min), oxygen saturation (SpO2%), blood pressure (mmHg) and respiratory rate (min) were measured one minute after treatment administration. Second measurement: 1 minute after treatment
Secondary Children's State Anxiety and Children's Fear Scale 1 minute after the treatment, the child's anxiety and fear score was scored again. Second measurement: 1 minute after treatment
Secondary Visual Analog Scale One minute after the treatment, the child's pain score was scored again Second measurement: 1 minute after treatment
