The Effect of Therapeutic Play on Preoperative Anxiety in Hospitalized Children With Congenital Heart Disease (TP-CHD)

9 juni 2026 bijgewerkt door: Li QingLan, First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University

The Effect of Therapeutic Play on Preoperative Anxiety in Hospitalized Children With Congenital Heart Disease: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) is the most common congenital malformation in children and the leading cause of death from birth defects in infancy. Preoperative anxiety is prevalent in children with CHD, but current preoperative care mainly focuses on physical preparation, with insufficient attention to psychological stress, and conventional intervention measures have limitations. As a non-pharmacological method, therapeutic play has been proven effective in relieving children's anxiety, but randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of therapeutic play for preoperative anxiety in children with CHD are still lacking in China. This study adopts a randomized controlled design, in which children with CHD before surgery are randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group. The experimental group receives therapeutic play (including parents' participation, with intervention content designed according to children's cognitive characteristics), while the control group receives routine preoperative nursing. The effect of therapeutic play on relieving preoperative anxiety in children with CHD will be evaluated multi-dimensionally through anxiety scale scores, vital signs, and salivary cortisol levels, providing scientific evidence for clinical intervention of preoperative anxiety in children with CHD.

Beschrijving

Inclusion Criteria:

Children diagnosed with congenital heart disease via clinical and imaging examinations, scheduled for elective cardiac surgery (e.g., open-heart surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass, open chest device closure, or percutaneous interventional treatment).

  • Aged 0 to 12 years old, with basic communication and comprehension abilities to respond to play interventions and complete anxiety scale assessments.
  • Clear consciousness, no severe intellectual, hearing, or speech communication disorders, or pervasive developmental disorders (e.g., autism), and being able to interact with researchers.
  • Primary caregivers (father or mother) provide written informed consent and have the ability to understand the study and assist the child with the intervention.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Children with complex critical CHD requiring emergency surgery or admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) upon hospitalization.
  • Children with severe neurological disorders (e.g., cerebral palsy, epilepsy), severe hepatic/renal insufficiency, or other major congenital diseases that may affect psychological status or perioperative progress.
  • Children who have taken sedatives, anxiolytics, or antidepressants long-term preoperatively, whose anxiety levels have been altered by medication.
  • Participants who cannot complete the intervention or outcome assessments for any reason (e.g., surgery cancellation, withdrawal of consent).

Wapens en interventies

Deelnemersgroep / Arm
Interventie / Behandeling
Experimenteel: Therapeutic Play Group
Children in this group receive routine preoperative preparation plus a structured therapeutic play intervention. The play intervention is tailored to the child's cognitive level, with parental involvement, to reduce preoperative anxiety.
Intervention Description :children receive routine preoperative preparation plus a structured, age-appropriate therapeutic play intervention. The play activities, involving parent-child interaction, are tailored to the child's cognitive level to distract attention, reduce fear, and relieve preoperative anxiety before congenital heart disease surgery.
Standard preoperative care including fasting guidance, medication preparation, and health education.
Actieve vergelijker: Routine Preoperative Care Group
Children in this group receive routine preoperative care, including fasting guidance, medication preparation, and standard health education.
Standard preoperative care including fasting guidance, medication preparation, and health education.

Primaire uitkomstmaten

Uitkomstmaat
Maatregel Beschrijving
Tijdsspanne
Anxiety levels of children
Tijdsspanne: Baseline (T0, pre-intervention), immediately post-intervention (T1), and during anesthesia induction (T2)
For children: Chinese Version of the Modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (m-YPAS), full scale range 23 ~ 100 points. Higher scores indicate greater preoperative anxiety (worse outcome); lower scores represent milder anxiety.
Baseline (T0, pre-intervention), immediately post-intervention (T1), and during anesthesia induction (T2)
Anxiety levels of primary caregivers
Tijdsspanne: Baseline (T0, pre-intervention), immediately post-intervention (T1), and during anesthesia induction (T2)
For primary caregivers: State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI, State Anxiety Subscale), full scale range 20 ~ 80 points. Higher scores indicate higher caregiver anxiety (worse outcome); lower scores mean less anxiety.
Baseline (T0, pre-intervention), immediately post-intervention (T1), and during anesthesia induction (T2)

Secundaire uitkomstmaten

Uitkomstmaat
Maatregel Beschrijving
Tijdsspanne
Preoperative hospital satisfaction
Tijdsspanne: At discharge from the preoperative ward (assessed up to 5 days)
Satisfaction with preoperative care will be assessed via self-developed satisfaction questionnaire completed by primary caregivers, with scores ranging from 0 to 100; higher scores correspond to better preoperative care satisfaction.
At discharge from the preoperative ward (assessed up to 5 days)
