Brief Summary:
This is a randomized controlled trial. The aim of the study is to the effects of Virtual Reality and Local Cold-Vibration applications in reducing anxiety, fear and pain due to intravenous catheterization (PIC) in children aged 5-10 years. PIC was found to be effective in reducing anxiety, fear and pain due to peripheral intravenous catheterization.
Detailed Description:
Peripheral intravenous catheterization is an administration method that is frequently used in children and causes pain. There are different non-pharmacological methods for reducing pain due to invasive procedures. The use of non-pharmacological methods is an important part of nursing care to reduce the short and long-term negative effects of painful interventions on children.This study was planned to compare the effectiveness of virtual reality and local cold-vibration applications in reducing anxiety, fear and pain caused by PIC in children aged 5-10 years. It was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study in pre-test, post-test design. The sample of the study was carried out in the Pediatric Emergency Unit of Akdeniz University Medical Faculty Hospital. The applicant will consist of 120 children aged 5-10 years. There will be a total of three groups in the research, 2 of which are the intervention group (virtual reality, local cold-vibration) and the control group (routine application). Data will be collected using the "Child-Parent Description Form", "Child Anxiety Scale-State Scale", "Child Fear Scale", "Wong- Baker Faces Pain Scale". Data will be collected before and within the first 5 minutes after IM injection administration. Scales; to be filled in separately by the child, one of the parents, and the nurse administering the PIC. As a result of this study, it was concluded that the use of virtual reality glasses and local cold-vibration methods are effective in reducing the pain, anxiety and fear that due to PIC placement in children aged 5-10 years.
