Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The purpose of the research and all the working processes were explained to the children and parents by the researcher.
Children who met all eligibility criteria were invited to participate in the study with their parents.
The children and their parents were informed about the study, they were included in the study by announcing that they would be in one of the four groups, and this group was randomly determined.
Before starting the application, verbal and written consent was obtained from the parents of the children by reading/reading the Informed Voluntary Consent Form.
The child and parent were informed by the researcher about the pain and fear level assessment tools and application before and after the procedure.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
ShotBlocker group
Pain in intramuscular injection It is a noninvasive, plastic tool used to reduce.
ShotBlocker
Before the procedure, the protruding surface of the vehicle was placed on the injection site in contact with the skin and used by holding it during injection. The level of pain and fear experienced by the child during and 5 minutes after the injection was evaluated with the "Facial Expressions Pain Scale" and "Visual Comparison Scale", and the level of fear was evaluated with the "Child Fear Scale" by the child, the parent accompanying the child, and the observer.
Finger Puppet group
Finger puppetry is an alternative method of interacting with the child through play while performing an intramuscular injection.
Finger Puppet group
During the interaction between the finger puppet and the child, an intramuscular injection was made. The level of pain experienced by the child during the injection and 5 minutes after the injection was evaluated by the child, the parent and the observer through the "Facial Expressions Pain Scale" and the "Visual Comparison Scale", and the fear level by the "Child Fear Scale".
Balloon group
Balloon inflation method, the child inflating the balloon while performing an intramuscular injection.
Balloon group
An intramuscular injection was given when the child began to inflate the balloon. The level of pain experienced by the child during the injection and 5 minutes after the injection was evaluated by the child, the parent and the observer through the "Facial Expressions Pain Scale" and the "Visual Comparison Scale", and the fear level by the "Child Fear Scale".
Control Group
Intramuscular injection without any intervention.
No interventions assigned to this group
