Pain Clinical Trial - The Effect of Distraction With a Kaleidoscope on

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This experimental study aimed to determine the effect of distracting children with a kaleidoscope during blood sampling on their perception of pain during the procedure and to increase and improve the quality of evidence for the effectiveness of these methods across different populations and cultures. Hypothesis 0 (H0): There is no difference between the pain scores of the kaleidoscope group and the control group during blood sampling. Hypothesis 1 (H1): There is a difference between the pain scores of the kaleidoscope group and the control group during blood sampling.

Clinical Trial Description

A pain-free life is the right of every child. Eliminating pain and improving the quality of life of children is one of the main goals of nursing care. Pediatric nurses should choose the appropriate assessment tool for the child's age and developmental characteristics and diagnose pain correctly. For this purpose, nurses can use appropriate distraction methods. Since the nurse is the healthcare worker who is with the child and family the most throughout the day, s/he should closely monitor and evaluate the child's pain and inform the child and family about the principles of pain control. Many hospitals in Türkiye generally do not use any non-pharmacologic methods to reduce procedural pain. Given that distraction techniques are inexpensive and easy to use, and that reducing children's pain may reduce negative feelings towards future procedures, it is important to examine the effectiveness of such methods. In our study, a kaleidoscope, one of the methods of distraction to reduce pain during blood sampling in children, was used. A kaleidoscope is a game tool that helps distract the child's attention from procedural pain and shows the external image by reproducing it when viewed through it. This experimental study aimed to determine the effect of distracting children with a kaleidoscope during blood sampling on their perception of pain during the procedure and to increase and improve the quality of evidence for the effectiveness of these methods across different populations and cultures. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
