Brief Summary

The research was carried out as a randomized controlled experimental study in order to examine the effects of the child's pain, fear and parent's satisfaction before and after vascular access with a musical toy-xylophone, which is used as a distraction technique for the preparation of the 3-6 year old child hospitalized in the pediatric clinic.

Detailed Description

The population of the study consists of children aged 3-6 years who applied to Durağan Şehit Hakan Tanrıkulu State Hospital Pediatric Service between January 2022 and December 2022 and needed vascular access. The sample of the study consisted of 70 children (control: 35, experiment: 35) who met the case selection criteria. Child and Parent Descriptive Information Form, Child Fear Scale (CFS), Children's Emotional Indicator Scale (CEIS), QUCHER Photographic and Numerical Rating Form (QUCHER), and Nurse-Patient Collaboration Level and Parent Satisfaction Form were used. While the children in the experimental group were playing with a musical toy with their parents, peripheral vascular access was performed.

Study Groups

Musical Toy Group

The child and his parents in the experimental group were distracted by playing with the xylophone, a musical toy, 5 minutes before the peripheral vascular access procedure. The xylophone is a percussion wooden toy. There are two wooden bars on the xylophone that make melodious sounds when the metal plates are struck. The xylophone toy was introduced to the child and the parent, and they were given the opportunity to examine it. Before the procedure, one of the wooden sticks of the toy was given to the child and the other to the parent. Before, during and after the procedure, the child and his parents played together by making a melodic sound from the musical toy xylophone. While the child and his parents were playing with the toy, the researcher attached a tourniquet to the appropriate extremity of the child and determined the vein to which the vascular access would be performed.

Control Group

No distraction technique was applied to the children in the control group before the vascular access procedure. After the procedure was explained according to the child's developmental level, the researcher applied the procedure to open a vascular access in accordance with the institutional policies.
