Effect of Maternal Voice on Pain, Sedation, and Physiological Parameters in Mechanically Ventilated Children

6. august 2026 opdateret af: Gamze Nur Güzel, TC Erciyes University

The Effect of Maternal Voice Played to Children on Mechanical Ventilators on Pain, Sedation, and Physiological Parameters: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Children in the pediatric intensive care unit often experience pain and stress from medical procedures, even while sedated. This study will test whether playing a recording of the child's mother's voice helps reduce pain and the need for sedation medication in children aged 1 to 3 years who are on a breathing machine (mechanical ventilator). Children will be randomly placed into one of two groups: one group will listen to a 10-minute recording of their mother's voice through headphones, while the other group will receive usual care with no recording. Researchers will measure pain and comfort levels, heart rate, oxygen levels, blood pressure, and breathing rate before, during, and after the session to see if listening to the mother's voice makes a difference.

Detaljeret beskrivelse

This randomized controlled trial will be conducted in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) of Kayseri City Hospital. Eligible children (aged 1-3 years, intubated, mechanically ventilated, and sedated, with no change in sedation dose in the prior 24 hours) will be assigned to an intervention or control group using stratified block randomization (stratified by age, sex, diagnosis duration, and COMFORT scale score), with simple randomization within blocks performed by an independent researcher.

In the intervention group, each child's mother will be asked to read a children's storybook aloud in a quiet room, and this reading will be recorded (approximately 10 minutes). The recording will then be played to the child once, through wireless over-ear headphones at a safe volume (50-55 dB), during a single morning session. The COMFORT Scale and physiological parameters (heart rate, oxygen saturation, blood pressure, respiratory rate) will be assessed before, during, and after the recording is played. All sessions will be video recorded so that COMFORT Scale scores can also be scored by independent, blinded observers.

Children in the control group will receive standard unit care with no additional intervention, and will be assessed on the same schedule and with the same tools as the intervention group.

Data will be analyzed using IBM SPSS 27.0. Group comparisons will use Chi-square, Independent/Paired Samples t-tests, or Mann-Whitney U/Wilcoxon tests as appropriate, with statistical significance set at p < 0.05.

Våben og indgreb

Deltagergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Eksperimentel: Maternal Voice Intervention Group
Children received a single ~10-minute recording of their mother's voice reading a children's storybook, played once through wireless over-ear headphones at 50-55 dB during a single morning session, with no other interventions during playback.
Adfærdsmæssigt: Recorded Maternal Voice

A single ~10-minute audio recording of the child's own mother reading a children's storybook ("The Invisible String," Turkish edition) will be played once through wireless over-ear headphones at a safe listening level (50-55 dB), during a single morning session (10:00-12:00), with no other procedural interventions during playback. The recording will be made in a quiet room by an independent researcher using a digital audio recorder.

Children received standard PICU care with no additional intervention. Assessments (COMFORT Scale, physiological parameters, video recording) were performed on the same schedule as the intervention group.

Tidsramme
COMFORT Scale
Tidsramme: Assessed before (~5 min), during (~10 min), and immediately after (~5 min) the intervention, within a single ~20-minute session on the day of enrollment
The COMFORT Scale (full behavioral and physiological scale for assessing pain and sedation level in critically ill children) assesses eight items - alertness, calmness, respiratory response, physical movement, blood pressure, heart rate, muscle tone, and facial tension - each scored 1 to 5, yielding a total score ranging from 8 (minimum) to 40 (maximum). Higher scores indicate greater distress/pain and inadequate sedation, while lower scores indicate deeper sedation and better comfort. Scores will be compared between the maternal voice intervention group and the control group.
