About this study

Official title: The Efficacy of Art Intervention on Decreasing Pain and Anxiety During Intravenous Cannulation

Peripheral Intravenous Cannulation (PIVC), one of the most common therapeutic procedures in medical care, can be difficult even for experienced medical practitioners. The pain of intravenous cannulation is considered the major limitation in pediatric clinical care. Reducing the pain of intravenous cannulation has been the motive for many investigations. Intervention methods used to reduce the distress related to painful procedures are widely recommended. The management of pain and anxiety is more essential because it may modify children's memory for procedural pain and the subsequent acceptance of later health care painful interventions. Distraction is the most studied psychological technique to relieve venipuncture-related pain and distress, with strong evidence supporting its efficacy in children.

Art therapy commonly used to reduce pain and anxiety of children's disease but was not used in reducing distress outcomes of painful procedures.

We used a collection of the image need for coloring and tracing called Trace Image and Coloring for Kids-Book (TICK-B).

The purpose of this study is to exam the effectiveness of TICK-B in decreasing pain and anxiety during cannulation.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Trace Image and Coloring for Kids-Book (TICK-B)Other

    A collection of images attractive that need to be colored, created as a book called TICK-B. This book was created with the instructions and recommendations of a pediatric psychiatrist and a professional drawing teacher at a children's school.Distraction with TICK-B began 1-3 min. before the intravenous cannula procedure and lasted until the end of the procedure.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Self-reported pain

    Pain: The severity of pain measured by Faces Pain Scale-Revised (FPS-R): The FPS-R ranking is a 0-10 scale with the six cartoons.

    Measured: Immediately after venipuncture (1-2 minutes after procedure, to mask , observer)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Fear Measure

    The Childrens Fear Scale (CFS) is used to assess children's fear or anxiety levels. The one-item scale consists of five sex-neutral faces arranged from left to right with no fear in the center, through fear out to extreme fear.

    Measured: Time Frame: Immediately after venipuncture (1-2 min.)
