Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and acceptance of an eye massage device that produces nature sounds and vibratory stimulations in the management of anxious pediatric patients during inferior alveolar nerve block Group A (Control group): inferior alveolar nerve block will be administrated with basic behavior guidance techniques and without distraction aids. Group B: inferior alveolar nerve block will be administrated with the usage of the eye massage device producing both vibrations and nature sounds Group C: inferior alveolar nerve block will be administrated with the eye massage device producing vibratory stimulations only. All of the children who experienced an inferior alveolar block with/without distraction will be assessed by using a combination of measures: Wong-Baker faces and the Children's Fear Scale (self-report), heart pulse rate and blood pressure (physiological), and behavior (using Anxiety levels using Face - Legs - Activity - Cry - Consolability "FLACC" scale "external evaluator") Acceptance will be measured using a two-point Likert scale.


Description:

This study will evaluate the effectiveness and acceptance of a distraction aid that produces both vibratory and natural sound stimulations. pain and anxiety will be assessed during inferior alveolar nerve block using four behavioral scales, Wong-Baker pain scale and Children's Fear Scale (self-report), pulse rate and blood pressure (physiological), and behavior (using FLACC behavior rating scale "external evaluator". Heart pulse rate measurement will be recorded firstly when the patient is seated comfortably on the dental chair, during anesthesia, and finally, after the procedure is done and the child patients will be asked to choose a face that describes their status from one of both Wong Baker faces scale and Children's Fear Scale. Blood pressure will be recorded before, during, and after anesthesia. Body responses of all child patients will be recorded during the whole procedure and then will be evaluated by an external evaluator to determine the children's behavioral score according to the FLACC scale.

Study Design


Intervention

Behavioral:
Evaluation of the effectiveness of eye massage device producing both vibrations and nature sounds distraction in the management of anxious pediatric patients during inferior alveolar nerve.
The child will be provided inferior alveolar nerve during eye massage device producing both vibrations and nature sounds. Children will be assessed by using a combination of measures: Wong-Baker faces and the Children's Fear Scale (self-report), heart pulse rate and blood pressure (physiological), and behavior (using Anxiety levels using Face - Legs - Activity - Cry - Consolability "FLACC" scale "external evaluator"). Acceptance will be measured using a two-point Likert scale

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Pain levels Pain levels will be measured by using a self-reported simplified Wong-Baker faces pain scale:
0 no Hurt - 1 Hurts little Bit - 2 Hurts little More - 3 Hurts Even More - 4 Hurts Whole Lot - 5 Hurts Worst
5 minutes following the inferior alveolar nerve block injection.
Primary Anxiety levels This will be evaluated using the Face-Legs-Activity-Cry-Consolability (FLACC) scale (0 low anxiety and pain level - 10 high anxiety and pain level). 1 minute during inferior alveolar nerve block administration.
Primary Anxiety levels This will be evaluated using Children's Fear Scale (0 indicating 'no anxiety' and 4 indicating 'extreme anxiety'). five minutes following the inferior alveolar nerve block injection
Secondary Pulse rate Pulse rate (the number of times your heart beats each minute bpm will be evaluated using Finger Pulse Oximeter. (1) five minutes after the patient is seated comfortably on the dental chair, (2) five minutes following the injection of the anesthetic drug
Secondary Blood pressure Blood pressure (millimeters of mercury mmHg) will be evaluated using a Wrist Digital Blood Pressure Monitor. (1) five minutes after the patient is seated comfortably on the dental chair, (2) five minutes following the injection of the anesthetic drug
