The Effect of Using the Popit Toy and Stress Ball During Inhaler Therapy in Children
The Effect of the Popit Toy and Stress Ball on Anxiety, Fear, Emotional State, and Satisfaction Levels During Inhaler Medication Administration in Children
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether using a popit toy and a stress ball as distraction methods during inhaled medication administration can reduce anxiety, fear, and negative emotional responses and improve satisfaction in children aged 4-6 years receiving treatment in a pediatric emergency unit.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does using a popit toy or a stress ball during inhaled medication administration reduce children's anxiety, fear, and negative emotional responses?
- Does using a popit toy or a stress ball improve children's satisfaction with the procedure?
- Do these distraction methods affect physiological parameters? To determine the effects of these non-pharmacological methods, researchers will compare the Popit toy group, the stress ball group, and the standard control group, which receives no intervention.
Researchers compared a pop-it toy group, a stress ball group, and a control group to determine the effects of these non-pharmacological methods.
Participants:
- Participants were randomly assigned to one of three groups: the pop-it toy group, the stress ball group, or the control group.
- They received inhalation therapy according to the standard treatment protocol.
- Assessments of anxiety, fear, emotional state, and satisfaction were conducted before and/or after the procedure.
- Physiological parameters (heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, and body temperature) were measured before and after the administration of the inhalation medication.
