Filter by:Objective: Needle-related procedures (venipuncture, vaccine injections) are the most common source of pain and fear, and generally experienced in childhood for the first time. This study was designed to determine the effects of watching cartoon films on non-VR and VR virtual reality on pain and fear during venipuncture in school-age children and to compare these two methods. Method: This randomized controlled trial study was conducted on 120 school-age children (7 -12 years of age) with pain and fear of venipuncture. The children were randomized according to their arrival in the biochemistry laboratory; the first, second, and third children were assigned VR distraction group with a headset (n=40), non-VR distraction group on a tablet computer screen (n=40) and no distraction group (n=40), respectively. The data collection was carried out using the children identification form, Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale evaluating the pain and Childrens' Fear Scale evaluating the fear. The outcomes reported by the children, parent, and observer.
Patients who are hospitalized in intensive care unit (ICU) require basic nursing care to improve patient hygiene, to promote comfort, to prevent pressure ulcer, and foot or hand's retractations. Those nursing cares require mobilization very frequently which expose critically ill patients to occurrence of serious adverse events (SAE) such as i) hemodynamic, neurologic, and respiratory variations ii) unplanned dislodgement (lines, drains, catheters, endotracheal tube..) Few study have evaluated relation between SAE occurence and several patient's, service's, health-care provider's caracteristics. We plan to analyse those factors to find some ways to prevent SAE occurence during nursing and hygiene cares.
