Filter by:In processes such as illness, hospital, medical procedures, and nursing interventions, the fears experienced by children should be reduced before the procedure. It may be more effective to give interventions to reduce children's fears in a school setting rather than in a complex environment such as a hospital. In this context, there is a need for experimental studies that reveal the effect of therapeutic play on nursing interventions and fear of medical materials in preschool children.
This study aim to evaluate the effect of puppet show applied during subcutaneous injection to children aged 3-7 years with leukemia on the level of pain and fear experienced by children due to the intervention.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of a novel intervention that involved contact interaction with a simulated healthcare space to reduce medical fear in children in infant class. The main question it aims to answer is: • Will the Health Friendly Program, based on the interaction with a simulate healthcare space, reduce medica fear among children in infant class? Participants will participate in the Health Friendly Program that will consist of showing the children different scenarios that simulated various medical contexts, letting them experiment with the material and ask questions. Researchers will compare two groups (intervention group and control group) to see if there exist differences between both groups in their responses to the Child Medical Fear Scale.
This mechanistic study uses an anti anxiety drug and brain imaging to study the threat processing system and associated brain circuits in people with depression, anxiety disorders and comorbid depression and anxiety disorders. In a double blind, placebo controlled crossover design, up to 65 individuals will be recruited who will have a diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) and at least one anxiety disorder (AD) (AD-MDD group), up to 65 participants will have a diagnosis of MDD and no diagnosis of an AD and up to 65 participants will have no diagnosis of MDD and a diagnosis of at least one AD will be enrolled to participate in an two session study to obtain 150 completers (50 per group). All participants will receive a single dose of Lorazepam and placebo (order randomized) taken orally. After the ~2.5 hr screening session, participants will complete two identical ~5 hr experimental sessions, each of which include a 30 min eyeblink startle session and a 1 hr functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain scan session. The total time involved in the study is approximately 10.5 hours. The main questions the study seeks to answer are: - are people with comorbid depression and anxiety different than those with depression alone in terms of their eyeblink startle response to threat? - are people with comorbid depression and anxiety different than those with depression alone in terms of their brain activation in response to threat? - are people with comorbid depression and anxiety different than those with depression alone in terms of their responses to anxiety drugs?
The study was conducted as a parallel group randomized controlled in order to determine the effects of dry heat and dry cold application before blood collection in school-aged children (7-12 years old) on pain, anxiety and fear levels. Participants were randomly assigned to experiment 1-dry hot application group, experiment 2-dry cold application group and control group. In Experiment 1-Dry Heat Application group, a dry heat of 42°C was applied to the determined area with an electrical heating pad for 5 minutes before blood sample was taken. In Experiment 2-Dry Cold Application group, dry cold was applied to the area determined with a gel pad for 3 minutes before blood sample was taken. In the Control group, blood sampling was performed according to the clinical routine, and no heat or cold application was made.
This study was planned to examine the effects of the butterfly vacuum blood collection set and standard vacutanier needle used during blood collection in children on the level of pain and fear. It is a randomized controlled trial.The study will be conducted in the pediatric blood collection unit with children between the ages of 7 and 12 who have undergone blood tests by a pediatrician.Data collection tools: "Descriptive Information Form", "Difficult Intravenous Intervention Score" for Children, "Numerical Pain Scale", "Child Fear Scale" will be used to collect data.The data will be uploaded to the computer and coded by the researchers, and the data will be evaluated in the SPSS package program. The sociodemographic data of the children participating in the study will be given as numbers and percentage distributions. Appropriate tests will be used by analyzing the data for normal distribution. The statistical significance level of the study was determined as p< 0.05. In addition, at the end of the research, the status of working with sufficient sample size will be tested with post-hoc power analysis.
Pregnancy and childbirth are a natural life event for women, as well as a process in which physical, biological and psychosocial changes are experienced. This process causes women to perceive childbirth as an unknown and unpredictable situation, resulting in the fear of childbirth. Due to the fear of childbirth, the daily routines, professional lives, social activities and relationships of pregnant women are significantly affected. This study was planned to evaluate the effect of mobile education given in line with the "Guide to Coping with Fear of Birth" on fear of birth, birth preference and maternal satisfaction at birth. Research; It will be carried out at the T. C. Ministry of Health Gaziantep Cengiz Gökçek Gynecology and Pediatrics Hospital. Data; The first one is 28-30th of pregnancy. week, the second is 36-38. It will meet in three meetings in total, the third of which will be within 12-24 hours postpartum. Data, Personal Information Form (Annex-1), Wijma Birth Expectation/Experience Scale (W-DEQ) Version A (Annex-2), Wijma Birth Expectation/Experience Scale Version B (Annex-3) and Birth Experience Scale ( Annex-4) and Postpartum Questionnaire (Annex-5). The obtained data will be analyzed with the SPSS 22.0 program. In this study, it is thought that the training given to women with a high level of birth fear can reduce their fear of childbirth and increase maternal satisfaction at birth.
Summary Aim: This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of the use of Bee Buzzy, external vibrating cold application, and the use of puppets on pain and fear in children aged 3 to 6 years during phlebotomy. Method: This study is a randomized controlled trial. The study was conducted with 105 children aged 3-6 years who came to the pediatric phlebotomy unit of a university hospital. The sample of children (n=105) was divided into groups (group 1, Bee Buzzy; group 2, puppet; group 3, control) by block randomization. Children's pain and fear scores were evaluated using the Wong-Baker Pain Scale and Child Fear Scale, as well as the investigator's report, after phlebotomy, their parents, and the nurse who attempted phlebotomy.
The aim of the study is to examine the effect of animal-assisted practice on fear in children admitted to the emergency room.
This randomized controlled study was planned to evaluate the effects of distraction methods, using virtual reality or a stress ball, on the emotional appearance, pain, fear, and anxiety associated with the procedure, during the phlebotomy in children aged 6-12 in a private blood collection unit.
