Filter by:Objective: The study was carried out in a randomized controlled manner to determine the effect of the watching cartoons on the fear and anxiety levels of children during treatment. Method: The population of the study consisted of children aged 5-10 years who were brought to a state hospital in a southeastern province for blood collection. A total of 92 children, 43 of whom were in the cartoon group and 49 of which were in the control group, were included in the study. Research findings; Data Form was obtained by using Child Anxiety Scale and Child Fear Scale. The children in the cartoon group were shown the cartoons they wanted during the treatment. Anxiety and fear levels before and during the blood collection were evaluated in the cartoon and control groups. The anxiety level of the children was evaluated according to their own expressions, and the level of fear was evaluated independently according to both the children's own statements and the observers' statements.
Virtual Reality (VR) can be used during needle-related procedures in children with cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of VR during access the venous port with Huber needle-related pain, fear and anxiety of children and adolescents with cancer.
Exploring the use of virtual reality as a distracting intervention strategy for school-age children to receive intravenous placement in emergency department, and further understand the effectiveness of reducing pain and fear during the invasive procedure.
Virtual Reality (VR) has firmly stood amongst other technological devices and can easily be adapted to clinical procedures due to its low cost. It can be easily used particularly in pediatric care units because it appeals to various age groups and can be adapted to mobile phones. Virtual Reality (VR) can be used during painful procedures in children. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of two different VR methods on procedure-related pain, fear and anxiety of children aged 5-12 years old during blood draw. This randomized controlled study used parallel trial design.
This study is planned to translate the Fear of Falling Avoidance Behaviour Questionnaire (FFABQ) into Turkish and to assess the psychometric properties (validity, reliability, responsiveness, floor and ceiling effect) of this Turkish version.
Vaccination is estimated to have saved more lives in Canada than any other single intervention and is considered one of the most important advances in the prevention of disease. The process of vaccination, however, is stressful for individuals. School-based vaccinations in particular, are associated with high levels of fear and anxiety among students. This randomized cluster trial will implement a multi-faceted knowledge translation intervention called The CARD (C-Comfort A-Ask R-Relax D-Distract) System in school-based vaccinations and evaluate its effects on the experience of vaccination for students and implementation outcomes.
This study aims to specifically examine the in vivo electrophysiology and effects of direct stimulation of the human amygdala during conditioned and evoked fear. Investigators will also examine amygdala electrophysiology and the effects of stimulation during tasks to examine the effects of reward on fear memory. This study will recruit subjects with a history of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) who have undergone neurosurgical implantation with FDA-approved, NeuroPace RNS devices for treatment of seizures. These patients provide a unique cohort with (Responsive Neurostimulation) RNS devices capable of both recording and stimulating the amygdala during performance of fear-based, behavioral tasks.
The study is an experimental randomized controlled study conducted to compare the effect of buzzy and shotblocker methods applied during intramuscular injection from on pain and fear level in 6-12 year-old children. The sample of the study consisted of 90 children aged between 6 and 12 years who were diagnosed with upper and lower tract respiratory infections and received intramuscular injection of ceftriaxone at the pediatric emergency department of a university hospital in İstanbul between November 2018 and April 2019. The children were divided into 3 groups of 30 people, including shotblocker, buzzy, and control groups. Each intervention and control group was matched in terms of gender. In the study, the randomization of the sample group was performed by using stratification and block randomization methods.
The primary goal of this project is to identify, measure, and influence fear of cardiac event recurrence, a candidate mechanism of change in medication adherence in patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS). An intervention will be tested that has been used to reduce fear of cancer recurrence by changing emotion-related patterns of attention allocation and interpretation of neutral stimuli. Secondarily, the study will test whether a reduction in fear of cardiac event recurrence improves medication adherence.
In Finland about 50% of surgical operations for all under 16 years of age are made as day surgery which means that the patient comes to the hospital and is discharged on the day of the operation. Day surgery will continue to grow in the next few years. Its benefits include shorter hospitalization, family reunion and rapid recovery. The preschool children and their parents who come in for day surgery feel fear, anxiety and stress, which depend on the amount of knowledge and its quality. By developing the preparation of preschool children and their parents for day surgery, and by testing new methods more attention can be paid to the special features of day surgery, supporting the families, and increasing family involvement in the whole process. The purpose of this study is to describe and evaluate the effectiveness of a new mobile application intervention compared to the effectiveness of the traditional preparing method when measuring preschool children's fear and pain and their parents' anxiety and stress. The aim is to produce new information and to develop day surgery of preschool children. The study consist of two phases. The first phase of the research is a systematic literature review and meta-analysis. The purpose of the review is to assess and describe the methods previously used in the preparation of parental day surgery and their effectiveness for preschool children fear and pain and parents' anxiety and stress. The second phase of the study is carried out as a randomized controlled trial (=RCT). The parents of the preschool children are randomized to the mobile application group (n = 50-60) and the control group (n = 50-60). The sample size is based on power-analysis, with anxiety as the primary outcome. The material for the second phase of the study is collected at the day surgery department of the Oulu University Hospital. The study group is prepared for day surgery with a new mobile application and the control group according to the traditional preparing method. The study examines the effectiveness of a new intervention compared to the effectiveness of the traditional preparing method when measuring preschool children's fear and pain and their parents' anxiety and stress. The collected data are analyzed using the Mann-Whitney, t-test, Khi square test, and Fisher's accurate test.
