Title

Effectiveness of distraction during intravenous cannula administration on discomfort among children

Abstract

Most children who seek hospital care present with or experience pain or discomfort during the evaluation and treatment. Hence, the most favorable assessment and treatment of pain is the ultimate need of this population. Non-pharmacological pain management methods are helpful adjuncts to analgesics in treating pain in children. Several techniques have been suggested in the literature: distraction, play therapy, having parents present, positioning, etc. Distraction is not a matter of tricking the child into not paying attention to the pain; it is more pleasant and exciting. In current treatment modalities, IV cannula administration in children is an unavoidable procedure which also causes unpleasant experiences for children in the hospital. So, nurses must use distraction techniques to reduce children's pain during IV cannula administration. The present study evaluated the effectiveness of distraction during intravenous cannula administration on discomfort among children in a selected hospital, Lucknow, U.P. A systematic sampling technique was used to collect data from thirty children who were undergone IV cannula administration. The quantitative true experimental post-test design was used to evaluate the effectiveness of distraction. The overall discomfort level in the experimental group, the mean value was 6.00 with a standard deviation of 2.23. In the control group, the mean value was 3.06, with a standard deviation of 2.01. Moreover, the overall mean difference was 2.94 with t value of 3.77. This shows that the reduction in discomfort level among children in the experimental group was statistically significant (P<0.05].
