Trial summary

Distraction is a non-pharmacological technique that moves focus away from anxiety, discomfort or unpleasant stimulation to more stimulating or friendly stimulation. Distraction is one of the most effective, simplest and inexpensive non-pharmacological pain management methods (Hockenberry \& Wilson, 2018). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparing The Effectiveness of Tracing Image and Coloring for Kids-Book With Two Passive Distractions on Pain and Fear in Children During Peripheral Intravenous Cannulation: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Distraction is a non-pharmacological technique that moves focus away from anxiety, discomfort or unpleasant stimulation to more stimulating or friendly stimulation. Distraction is one of the most effective, simplest and inexpensive non-pharmacological pain management methods (Hockenberry \& Wilson, 2018). The benefits of using non-pharmacological methods include decreased pain, distress, and fear reported by the parent, child, and/or observer (Wente, 2013). There are two main types of distraction techniques: active and passive (Mutlu \& Balcı, 2015; Wohlheiter \& Dahlquist, 2013).

Objectives:

To evaluate the roles of the TICK-B, listening music, and watching cartoon, in relieving pain and fear of school-age children during PIVC.

To compare the effect of TICK-B with the effects of the listening music, and watching cartoon, on reducing pain and fear during PIVC in children.

To compare the effects of three distraction groups with the control group in relieving pain and fear during PIVC.

Read the detailed description

Peripheral intravenous cannulation (PIVC) is an invasive technique. In this technique, a catheter is entrenched through the skin of the recipient into the lumen of a peripheral blood vein. It is the second most painful procedure performed in hospitals. Peripheral intravenous cannulation (PICV) is a common painful procedure for children, and nearly all ill children have experience with PIVC, and up to 80% of patients receive a peripheral venous cannula in a hospital. Therefore, the use of effective methods in pain and anxiety relief is very important during injection procedures in children.

In order to relieve pain and fear in children undergoing PICV. Psychological and physical approaches for coping with children's pain are favored, as well as pharmacological methods. Application of topical anesthetic creams is the most commonly used pharmacological solution to reduce pain associated with the medical procedure, or refrigerant preparations, however, only reduce the perception of pain in children during procedures. These approaches are not resolved anxiety, a core factor of noncooperation, which encumbers the efficiency of the needle procedure. For this cause, non-pharmacological approaches are generally recognized as alternative techniques, which may be used separately or in addition to pharmacological approaches, to provide sufficient pain and fear relief and to offer children a sense of control over the situation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Faces Pain Scale-Revised to rate the severity of Pain (0-10) from no pain to worst pain

    To assess the intensity of pain related to Peripheral intravenous cannulation procedure in children:

    Children will self-report their pain severity using the Faces Pain Scale-Revised, which has been validated and shown to be reliable.

    Measured: 5 minutes before procedure done.

  2. Children's Fear Scale (CFS): Fear (0-4) no anxiety to extreme anxiety

    To assess the fear level of the children related to Peripheral intravenous cannulation procedure:

    Children will self-report their level of fear using the Children's Fear Scale (CFS), which has been validated and shown to be reliable.

    Measured: 5 minutes before procedure done

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Faces Pain Scale-Revised to rate the severity of Pain (0-10) from no pain to worst pain.

    To assess the intensity of pain related to Peripheral intravenous cannulation procedure in children:

    Children will self-report their pain severity using the Faces Pain Scale-Revised, which has been validated and shown to be reliable.

    Measured: 0 minute during peripheral cannulation insertion procedure(time during insertion of cannula).

  2. Faces Pain Scale-Revised to rate the severity of Pain (0-10) from no pain to worst pain.

    To assess the intensity of pain related to peripheral intravenous cannulation procedure in children:

    Children will self-report their pain severity using the Faces Pain Scale-Revised, which has been validated and shown to be reliable.

    Measured: 1-2 minutes after procedure done.

  3. Children's Fear Scale (CFS): Fear (0-4) no anxiety to extreme anxiety

    To assess the fear level of the children related to peripheral intravenous cannulation procedure:

    -Children will self-report their level of fear using the Children's Fear Scale (CFS), which has been validated and shown to be reliable.

    Measured: 0 minute during cannulation procedure.

  4. Children's Fear Scale (CFS): Fear (0-4) no anxiety to extreme anxiety

    To assess the fear level of the children related to peripheral intravenous cannulation procedure:

    -Children will self-report their level of fear using the Children's Fear Scale (CFS), which has been validated and shown to be reliable.

    Measured: 1-2 minute after cannulation procedure done.
