Filter by:Venipuncture, a frequently performed needle-related procedure, is one of the foremost frightening experiences, and a typical source of moderate to severe pain for pediatric patients. No randomized studies have compared the effectiveness of balloon inflation, cough trick, and TICK-B on reducing pain in children between 6 and 12 years old during the drawing of venous blood samples. The research hypothesis was that children who draw and color a picture, inflate a balloon, or perform the cough trick while having their blood taken would experience less pain and anxiety than children who did not undergo a pain-reducing intervention. Objectives: To evaluate the roles of the TICK-B, balloon inflation, and cough trick in relieving pain and fear of school-age children during venipuncture. To compare the effect of TICK-B with the effects of the cough trick, balloon inflation, on reducing pain and anxiety during venipuncture in children. To compare the effects of three distraction groups with the control group in relieving pain and anxiety during venipuncture.
Venipuncture is one of the most common stressful procedures in children. Managing pain and fear of venipuncture procedure recommended strongly because it may change children's memory for procedural pain and the subsequent acceptance of later health care painful interventions. Prior painful experiences can reduce the acceptance of later health care, hence making it more difficult for both patients and nurses. There was clear evidence that the distraction method is the most performed as a psychological technique performed to decrease venipuncture-related pain and distress and supporting its efficacy in children. The aim of this study to investigate the effectiveness of TICK-B on children's pain and anxiety during venipuncture procedure.
Aim: The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of vapocoolant spray in reducing pain related to venipuncture in young, healthy male blood donors. Hypotheses: H1: Vapocoolant spray reduces venipuncture pain during blood donation. H0: Vapocoolant spray does not reduce venipuncture pain during blood donation.
Low level intervention health products clinical trial, fourth phase, non-commercial research. Dissertation of COMPLUTENSE UNIVERSITY of Madrid. Principal Investigator of this clinical trial: Ms. LETICIA CARMEN SIMÓN LÓPEZ Collaborative investigators: Dr. DOLORES OCHOA-MAZARRO (principal investigator of bioequivalence clinical trial), and Sir. SERGIO LUQUERO-BUENO (collaborative researcher) The setting is Clinical trials Unit of Clinical Pharmacology Department. LA PRINCESA HOSPITAL of Madrid. Research Ethical Committee of LA PRINCESA HOSPITAL of Madrid. Any person will monitor this clinical trial because the sponsor and principal researcher are the same person. Nevertheless, an adherence to this protocol will ensure by principal researcher and co-researchers. The three interventions are: 1. To Apply local dry heat. 2. To apply high tourniquet pressure. 3. To apply both of them. (Dry heat and high pressure) The common comparator: Current Clinical practice for peripheral venous catheterization. The main hypothesis: The number of attempts of success venipuncture at first time are influenced by any of the interventions applied before. The main goal: To identify the most effective intervention of applying dry local heat and/or high tourniquet pressure in relation of number success venipuncture attempts, compared to current clinical practice. Design: An experimental, randomized study which is controlled with current clinical practice to insert a peripheral vein catheter. It is an incomplete cross-over clinical trial, with three arms which are involved interventions and a common comparator. Population: Adult healthy subjects. Sample size: It is required to enroll 54 subjects with a 95% of level of confidence and 80% level of power. Main variable: Succeed peripheral vein catheter insertion at first attempt. Effectiveness assessment: The optimal effectiveness is considered when vein cannulation success at first attempt exceeds 95% applying any of the interventions. Planned date to address: It is planned to carry out around June and/or July of 2017 for the main variable.
To evaluate the efficacy of Health Support Activities (Animal Assisted Intervention, Clows, Musicians) in the reduction of pain and distress in children undergoing venipuncture. Hypothesis: the investigators expect a reduction in in pain and distress.
Peripheral venipuncture is a common procedure in geriatrics. This procedure due to altered cutaneous alteration and venous capital associated with age poses problems of comfort and quality of life of elderly patients hospitalized. There is little data from the literature that highlights the difficulties of venipuncture in the context of old age. New venous visualization technologies by infrared spectroscopy (NIR) such as VeinViewer® Vision (VVV) have been developed to guide the placement of a peripheral venous (VVP) or venipuncture (PV) route.
The purpose of this research was to estimate feasibility of an aromatherapy pain management intervention to reduce pain and distress caused by venipunctures in a pediatric population. The feasibility of the use of aromatherapy essential oil lavandula angustifolia for pain management intervention (Treatment Group) was compared to placebo aromatherapy with jojoba oil (Placebo Control Group) and to the current standard of care, which is no oil during a venipuncture (Standard of Care Control Group). Primary measured outcomes were assessed using a double-blind randomized design. The physiological measure of heart rate was taken over the course of four minutes at three different intervals to note the pattern of change that occurs during anticipatory anxiety resulting from the impending procedure, the procedural pain experienced during the venipuncture, and the residual fear common after completion of the venipuncture procedure. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain and the Hospital Fears Rating Scale (HFRS) were administered to measure subjective pain and anxiety. Participants (N=21) were recruited from the Laboratory Medicine Unit of Children's National Health System. Feasibility was estimated based on the ability to inhale the full dose of oil without adverse effects and and ability to inhale the full dose within the ten-minute time frame. This study analyzed the effect of the aromatherapy pain management intervention, lavandula angustifolia aromatherapy, on the stress response of a pediatric population through observation of physiological and psychological indicators of pain and distress, in order to learn more about the pain and anxiety experienced during venipuncture and the use of aromatherapy to decrease pain and anxiety during venipuncture.
Children with chronic diseases, particularly those who have received transplantation (e.g. cardiac, renal, or liver) are a population who undergo frequent painful procedures, such as venipuncture multiple times per week. There is currently no standard of care for pain reduction during venipuncture for pediatric patients having blood drawn in phlebotomy as an outpatient. The study aims to determine the efficacy of distraction in reducing procedural pain and distress associated with venipuncture in pediatric post-transplant patients.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of Synera patch versus LMX-4 cream and placebo on the level of pain, observed distress, difficulty of venipuncture and skin side effects in children undergoing intravenous blood draw in the emergency setting or the phlebotomy lab.
The aim of the trial is to study the possible mechanism of the pain reducing effect of CT at peripheral venipuncture
