Filter by:This study was conducted on the effects of visual and/or auditory distraction techniques applied to children aged 7-12 years who applied to Çanakkale Mehmet Akif Ersoy State Hospital Gynecology and Pediatric Emergency Service during invasive procedures (blood sampling, intravenous access or intramuscular injection in the deltoid region). Kaleidoscope, music concert, virtual reality glasses) is a randomized controlled experimental study to determine the effect of children on pain, anxiety and fear of medical procedures.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of needless injection (comfort in ject) on child behavior and its effect on adjacent oral mucosa and soft tissue in children during local anesthesia injection in comparison to the conventional injection technique
To assess the influence of the choice of fluoride varnish flavor on the acceptance and cooperation in schoolchildren between (5-10) years during the dental visit, in which an application of fluoride varnish is indicated.
The purpose of the study is to train New York-based early childhood mental health consultants (ECMHCs) who will apply the Infant-Toddler Climate of Healthy Interactions for Learning and Development (I-T CHILD) tool as part of their standard practice. The study will evaluate I-T CHILD-informed early childhood mental health consultation in 100 New York State-licensed family day care and group family day care programs serving infants and toddlers in lower-income neighborhoods
Comfort, distress and the absence of pain can be described as free from anxiety, somewhat enjoyable and ease (peaceful) situation. The child health and disease nurse should come up with physiological problems of the baby, increase the comfort degree to reduce the stress level of the baby and ensure improvement in the baby's location. This research was experimentally designed to investigate the effect of the baby's own intrauterine heart sound on pain and comfort during the invasive procedures applied to the healthy born babies in the delivery units of the Batman Gynecology and Pediatrics Hospital. The research will be performed by selecting samples in a simple random sampling method from the babies who born healthy and timely in the normal vaginal way. The number of samples will be determined by power analysis method after pilot study. The previously white noise will have listened to the babies in experimental group and will be recorded by camera during invasive interventions and the pain and comfort scale will be applied. The scales will be applied to the control group let them without listening White noise but also will be recorded with camera and thus the data will be collected. A nurse working in the unit will perform invasive interventions, later two specialists will watch video records and so the pain and comfort scales will be filled. No study on this subject was found in the international literature review. Based on the need to fill this gap in the literature, it seems that the study will contribute to the field of child health and diseases nursing.
Childhood obesity prevention efforts are needed in the United States, especially for families with low income. Educating parents and caregivers on simple lifestyle and affordable home environment changes is an effective strategy to improve health outcomes for the entire family. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to determine whether HomeStyles-2, a nutrition education and childhood obesity prevention program for families with children in middle childhood (ages 6 to 11 years), motivates parents to shape their home environments and weight-related lifestyle practices to be more supportive of optimal health and weight status of their children aged 6-11 years more so than those in the control condition. The study will include the experimental group and an attention control group who will engage in a nutrition education program, Eat Healthy Be Active, that is equal in nonspecific treatment effects but does not overlap on topics covered in HomeStyles-2. This study will be implemented in Florida's Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program-Education (SNAP-Ed) program, which provides nutrition education and obesity prevention supports for individuals with low income who are receiving or eligible for SNAP benefits. Nutrition Educators will be randomized to the experimental or attention control condition, and will lead participants through virtual, group-based nutrition education series. The following data will be collected: sociodemographic characteristics of the participant and child; child and parent health status; parent weight-related cognitions; weight-related behaviors of the participant and child; and weight-related characteristics of the home environment. Enrollment for this study will begin late-2021.
This project will use a longitudinal design with assessments at baseline (T1), post-treatment (T2), 3 month post-partum (T3), 1 year postpartum (T4) and 3.5-5 years postpartum to examine whether the PMEP improves participants': a) mental health (depression, PTSD) and resilience, b) parenting skills, c) birth, infant, and toddler developmental outcomes, and d) lowers re-victimization rates. We hypothesize significantly improved outcomes in the intervention group compared to the control group at post-treatment and at all follow-ups. The pilot will use a quasi-randomized design, with participants assigned to alternating treatment and control blocks. Analyses will be conducted using intent to treat and per protocol methods. Following group assignment, all women will be scheduled for a baseline interview at a time convenient for the participant. Participant interviews will take approximately 1.5 hours. Mothers will be compensated with a gift card in the amount of 40 USD for each interview. In addition to the core evaluation metrics, mothers' demographic information will be obtained (age, relationship status, employment, education, number of children, income). Following the baseline interview, the PMEP will be provided to the treatment group; participants will receive 2-hours of contact time per week for 5 weeks (2-hour sessions, held once weekly). Women will receive reminder calls the day of each session to identify and resolve any barriers to attendance (e.g., transportation). Taxi fare will be supported for women who are unable to obtain transportation if the bus is not feasible. Following the completion of the PMEP groups or - for the control group - after 5-6 weeks has passed, all participants will complete a second interview. This interview will include all of the core measures of hypothesized treatment change, thereby permitting a comparison between women in the treatment and control groups over time. All women will be invited in a third time when their infant is 3 months old and again when their infant is 1 year of age to evaluate parenting and infant outcomes. Women will participate in a brief phone assessment when their children are between 3.5 and 5 years of age that includes all primary study outcomes.
Children with acquired brain injury (ABI) often struggle with complex impairments, including cognitive (such as memory and attention), social, emotional and behavioral challenges. There is a lack of evidence-based knowledge about rehabilitation for children with ABI in the chronic phase. The current study, the CICI Study, is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) directed towards children with ABI and their families in the chronic phase. The study will be conducted in close collaboration with schools and local health care providers. The CICI Study focuses on the child's and parents' individually identified target outcome areas and rehabilitation goals. The intervention aims to enhance everyday functioning in the home and school environment by attaining rehabilitation goals in areas noted as challenging by the participants. The efficacy of the CICI-intervention will be measured in terms of goal attainment, burden of brain injury related symptoms, parenting self-efficacy, unmet health care needs, as well as several aspects of child, parent and family functioning.
After development of the prototype Bedtime Routine module of the Talk Parenting program, the investigators will evaluate its feasibility and initial efficacy in a within-subjects pre-post design study. Through recruitment partner agencies, the investigators will recruit a sample of 52 at-risk families (52 primary parents, 52 target children). Primary parents will be assessed at enrollment via online an questionnaire, then provided an Amazon Echo Dot and asked to use the Bedtime Routine module for 4 weeks. They will then be re-assessed with the online questionnaire at 4 weeks (at treatment completion).
This study conducts a preliminary test of an intervention program delivered in the home to assist families of preschool-age children with social, emotional, and behavioral development, and the acquisition of healthy lifestyle behaviors.
