Effects of distraction methods on anxiety and pain during blood collection in children aged 9–13

Less pain was noted in the Buzzy and cartoon groups compared to the control group. This suggests that these methods are effective non-pharmacological methods that can be used to reduce pain. The results show that these methods can be safely used for venipuncture pain in children aged 9-13 years.

Abstract

Less pain was noted in the Buzzy and cartoon groups compared to the control group. This suggests that these methods are effective non-pharmacological methods that can be used to reduce pain. The results show that these methods can be safely used for venipuncture pain in children aged 9-13 years.
