Clinical Trial Description

Aim: This study was planned to Comparison of the effectiveness of two different distraction interventions (distraction with play dough- distraction with kaleidoscope) in reducing preoperative anxiety of children and parents who are scheduled for elective surgery Method: This study was planned as a randomized controlled trial. The sample of the study will consist of 105 children aged 5-12, who will be operated on at Akdeniz University Hospital, and their parents. Randomization result; It was planned to include a total of 105 children and their parents in 3 groups: distraction with play dough group (intervention group 1)= 35, distraction with kaleidoscope group (intervention group 2)= 35 , and control group= 35 children and parents. Child and parent information form will be used to collect data, Modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale will be used to collect data in child sample, and Spielberger State Anxiety Scale will be used to collect data in parent sample. Intervention and Data Collection: Randomization will be performed after the purpose of the study is explained to the child and parent who agreed to participate in the study and after obtaining consent. Immediately after the pre-test (first measurement) is given to the children assigned to intervention group 1 and their parents, attempts to distract attention with play dough will be applied for 10 minutes. If they wish, the child and parents will be told that they can continue to play with the play dough until premedication. Children assigned to intervention group 2 and their parents will be distracted with a kaleidoscope for 10 minutes immediately after the pre-test (first measurement) is done. If they wish, the child and parents will be told that they can continue to play with the kaleidoscope until premedication. Participants randomized to the control group will be given routine standard nursing care. The second measurement will be administered 15 minutes after the interventions (before premedication=post test), and the control group 25 minutes after the first measurement (before premedication=posttest). Thus, the effectiveness of the initiatives and their comparison with each other will be evaluated. The data of the research will be analyzed using the Statistical Package of Social Science (SPSS) 23.0 software package program. The process of evaluating the data will be carried out with the support of a statistician. ;
