Filter by:This study was conducted to determine the effect of mechanical vibration and ShotBlocker methods on pain level, crying time and procedure time during heel prick blood collection in healthy term infants.
The study was designed as a randomized controlled experimental research with the purpose of determining the effect of distraction by using vacutainers of three different animal characters.
The thoracic epidural catheterization (TEC) can be both uncomfortable and fearful for patients when done awake with the thought that the procedure may be painful. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of subanesthetic intravenous ketamine administration on pain and anxiety during the TEC procedure.
Coronary angiography serves as the primary diagnostic technique for cardiovascular disease. However, this invasive procedure commonly triggers pain, anxiety, and fear in patients. The objective of this randomized controlled trial was to examine the impact of music and breathing exercises on anxiety and pain levels in individuals undergoing coronary angiography. The study, conducted as a single-blind, randomized controlled trial, involved a sample of 165 patients, with 55 in each group: the control group, the breathing exercise group, and the music therapy group. Patients in the music group listened to music during angiography, those in the breathing exercise group practiced exercises 30 minutes before the procedure, while the control group received standard treatment. Anxiety levels were assessed both before and after the procedure, and pain levels were measured post-procedure. The study strictly adhered to the CONSORT statement guidelines.
Pain and anxiety-inducing interventions have a major impact on pediatric patients. Pain reduction by virtual reality (VR) during port and vein punctures is well studied. This study investigates peri-interventional reduction of pain, anxiety and distress using VR compared to the standard of care (SOC) in a pediatric oncology outpatient clinic. In a randomized, controlled cross-over design, patients aged 6-18 years experience potentially painful interventions accompanied by VR. All patients included in the study underwent port puncture or peripheral venous puncture in two observations : SOC (A) and VR (B) in a randomized order. Observational instruments include Numeral Rating Scale (NRS), Faces Pain Scale revised (FPS-r), Behavioral Approach Avoidance Distress Scale (BAADS), modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (mYPAS-SF). In addition, parents and staff are interviewed. Specific conditions for VR in an outpatient clinic setting are being discussed.
This study investigated the effect of maternal holding-cuddling (MHC) and paternal holding-cuddling (PHC) on heel prick pain and crying duration in healthy term neonates
Medical procedures can cause significant stress and anxiety for children and parents, impacting their overall hospital experience. Numerous studies have demonstrated that techniques aimed at diverting attention during procedures can effectively reduce pain and fear. Considering the rapid advancements in technology and the strong connection between Generation Z children and technology, this study aims to explore the use of hologram technology through a hologram fan and the traditional method of bubble blowing as interventions to assess their impact on pain and fear levels during intravenous blood collection in children. The study design will follow a randomized controlled trial approach. The sample will consist of patients between the ages of 3 and 12 who meet the sampling criteria and receive outpatient care at the pediatric stem cell outpatient treatment unit between April 2022 and February 2024. Data will be collected using a researcher-prepared form containing introductory information and child pain, fear, and emotional indicator scales for which appropriate permissions have been obtained. The blood collection process will be performed by the unit's nurse, and the observer nurse will complete the scales. Descriptive statistics, such as mean, standard deviation (median, minimum, maximum), frequency, and percentage values, will be used for data analysis. IBM SPSS Statistics 25.0 (IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 25.0. Armonk, NY: IBM Corp.) will be employed for data analysis. A significance level of 0.05 will be used for all statistical analyses. Regenerate response Keywords: Fear, pain, pediatrics, hologram, bubble-blowing, invasive procedures
This study investigated the effect of cognitive-behavioral interventions package (CBIP) on pain and anxiety related to peripheral venous cannulation (PVC) in children aged 7-12 years.
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 pilot study was conceptualised to determine the feasibility of involving parents via facilitated tucking or observing during painful procedures and to measure change in parental stress and infant pain. An additional purpose of this pilot study was to determine the size of the cohort of preterm infants needed for a larger trial, the time, and resources required for recruitment and data collection.
