“…Children who receive an AV intervention generally experience significant reductions in preoperative anxiety compared with children who receive only standard care, which may include PPIA, sedative premedication, or a combination of the two depending on the medical institution. 21,22 In addition to being an effective method of delivering anxietyreducing education and coping techniques, AV interventions also have implications for increased patient and parent satisfaction with perioperative care. By allowing children and their parents to use AV programmes at their convenience, from the comfort of their own home, they may as a result be more receptive and able to retain procedure-related information and skills training.…”

“…Lastly, websites and other web-based interventions that serve as tools for preoperative preparation and coping skill training are effective in reducing perioperative anxiety in children. 22 One key advantage of web-based interventions is the potential for real-time adjustment and tailoring of treatment components according to individual factors. Programmes, such as the Web-based Tailored Intervention Preparation for Surgery (WebTIPS) (Fig.…”

“…Various non-pharmacological interventions have shown that the provision of specific patient information can reduce pre-operative anxiety in children before an elective surgical procedure ( 15 , 16 ). Research has increasingly focused on exploring the effects of audio-visual ( 17 ) and technology-based ( 18 ) interventions, particularly digital intervention programs.…”

Objective: Audio-visual interventions have been used to provide relevant patient information to reduce pre-operative anxiety in children. The aim of the study was to investigate whether self-reported state anxiety in children could be reduced by presenting a child-friendly educational video on the day of surgery.Methods: A prospective, single-blinded, two-armed, randomized controlled study was designed with three measurement time points including 90 children (6–17 years) and their parents. In the intervention group (IG), the children and their parents were shown a child-friendly video explaining the perioperative procedures that would be applied during the hospital stay, in addition to receiving standard information. In the control group (CG), children and parents received standard information provided by the nursing staff. The primary outcome was any change in the children's pre-operative state anxiety levels, as measured by the State-Trait Operation Anxiety Inventory (STOA). A secondary outcome was patient satisfaction regarding the received information.Results: Anxiety was significantly reduced in both groups after receiving either the intervention plus standard information or the standard information only. No significant difference in anxiety reduction was observed between the IG and the CG. However, the children and parents in the IG reported fewer worries than those in the CG.Conclusion: A child-friendly, educational video can be an additional tool for providing patient information and reducing pre-operative anxiety in children and their parents. Further studies should focus on the timing of the intervention and on age- and developmentally appropriate information formats and contents to address children's pre-operative anxiety.Clinical Trial Registration: Patient Anxiety Reduction in Children by Using Simple Explanation Videos, ID: NCT0441377; www.clinicaltrials.gov, Data Sharing Statement: Deidentified individual participant data will not be made available.

“…Listening to music and watching movies and cartoons relaxes the muscles, diverts the patient's thought from the pain, reduces the severity of the pain, and sends nerve impulses to the central nervous system (Indhu Rekka et al, 2019). Visual and auditory distractions are inexpensive, non-pharmacological, and non-invasive nursing interventions that have no side effects and can be used in conjunction with pain relief medications (Kim et al, 2019).…”

This study aimed to compare the effect of audiovisual distraction on physiological indicators and pain of burn dressing change among 6-12 year-old children. Design and methods: The study was a single-blind clinical trial with a three-group that sample size was 120 children aged 6-12 years admitted to the burn ward of Hamadan Besat Hospital. Data collection tools were the Oucher pain scale, a Cheklist form of the physiological Indicators, and apulse oximetry device. The cartoons were shown for visual group and the melodic poems were played for the auditory group 2 min before the dressing until the end of the procedure (at 2-min intervals). Data were analyzed by SPSS-16 software one-way, variance analysis and post-hoc Bonferroni test. Results: Therewere statistically significant differences between visual, auditory and control groups in the mean pain intensity scores at all measurement times, the mean arterial blood oxygen saturation percentage at all measurement times except for the10 min before the dressing and the start of the procedure and the mean heart rate at all measurement times except for 10 min before dressing (p < 0.001). Post-hoc tests showed that the difference in the mean heart rate was related to the difference between the visual and auditory distraction groups during and at the end of the dressing (p < 0.05), the visual and control groups at all measurement times (P < 0.001) and the auditory and control groups at all measurement times (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Audiovisual distraction is effective in reducing the fluctuations of physiological indicators and the burn dressing pain intensity in children at all times of measurement, especially during changedressing. Practice implications: The findings of this study are relevant to clinical practice because they suggest preparing children before and during a burning procedure situation.
