Psychological interventions for needle-related procedural pain and distress in children and adolescents

Abstract

The objectives are as follows: To assess the efficacy of cognitive-behavioral psychological interventions for needle-related procedural pain and distress in children and adolescents. Psychological interventions for needle-related procedural pain and distress in children and adolescents (Protocol)

Comparison of the effectiveness of three different methods in decreasing pain during venipuncture in children: ball squeezing, balloon inflating and distraction cards

“…Different from the studies of Gupta et al (2006), Mutlu and Balcı (2015) and Sahiner and Bal (2015), in our study, although pain and anxiety levels in with balloon inflation were lower than in the control group, no statistical significance was found. Even though the results of our study are different from those in the literature, balloon inflation is among the more interesting methods for school-age children (Uman et al 2006(Uman et al , 2008. There are a limited number of studies in which ball squeezing has been used.…”

‘Pinholes in my arms’: the vicious cycle of vascular access

“…Existing literature on the patient experience of PVC cannulation in the adult population is sparse, with more research focusing on the paediatric population (Walco, 2008;Slifer et al, 2011;Uman Lindsay et al, 2013;Pavlova and Noel, 2017;Orenius et al, 2018). The findings of previous research which does focus on the adult population support the findings presented herein, and highlight the negative effects of repeated intravenous cannulation on adults (Szmuk, Szmuk and Ezri, 2005;Kim et al, 2007;McGowan, 2014;Robinson-Reilly, Paliadelis and Cruickshank, 2016;Barton, Ventura and Vavrik, 2017).…”

Procedural Pain in Lumbar Punctures and the Impact of Preparation in Pediatric Cancer Patients

“…Two review articles that aim to summarize the current state of knowledge about preprocedural preparation in childhood patients describe that the quality of evidence for preparatory information is low, but that the recommendation for such interventions is nevertheless strong. [12,13] In the present study, with 76 children included, the results are significant and we postulate that the significance would increase had we included more patients.…”
