Overview
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of storigami method on reducing pain, fear and anxiety of children in peripheral intravenous catheter applications in children aged 6-9 years who were hospitalized in the pediatric health and diseases clinic.
Detailed description
He stated that children and their families who frequently visit hospitals for follow-up, treatment or various anomalies have negative hospital experiences due to fear, anxiety and painful procedures, and that these negative experiences may cause phobias and avoidance of medical procedures in children in the future. Therefore, this study was planned to determine the effect of storigami method on reducing pain, fear and anxiety of children in peripheral intravenous catheter applications in children aged 6-9 years who were hospitalized in the pediatric health and diseases clinic. Storigami is a method that involves the use of origami and stories at the same time and can be used to reduce pain in hospitals. The method, which is planned to be used to minimize negative hospital experiences, is thought to be a promising, cost-effective and safe non-pharmacological technique that can be used safely to reduce fear, anxiety and pain of hospitalized patients.
