Brief Summary:
There has been growing interest in animal-assisted therapy AAT in recent decades due to increasing reports indicating its health benefits for adult patients These benefits are partly attributed to changes usually increased levels of the neuropeptide oxytocin
Aim To investigate changes in oxytocin levels in hospitalized children during animal-assisted therapy sessions with a certified hospital dog
Method Urine samples were collected from 35 hospitalized children 3-17 years before and after each participant had a session with the hospital dog Oxytocin levels were analysed with an acetylcholinesterase AChE competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ELISA Creatinine levels were measured to determine the subjects fluid intake and then divided by the hormonal concentration uOT pgmg
