Investigators

Before blood collection, the "Emotional Appreance Scale for Children" was evaluated by a non-researcher nurse. Pediatric patients between the ages of 6 and 12, from whom blood would be collected, were distributed to groups according to the randomization scheme.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Control

No additional intervention will be performed on the patient in the control group, and until the intervention begins, "How old are you?" Which grade are you in? What is the name of your favorite friend? Which sport do you enjoy doing more? His attention was distracted by asking questions such as.
