Popis: | Objective: The aim of this study was to detect and compare the effects of ShotBlocker and Buzzy methods on pain, fear, and parental satisfaction during intramuscular injection. Method: This study was an experimental randomized controlled trial. The sample included 90 children at the ages of 6 and 12 who applied to the pediatric emergency department of a university hospital and received intramuscular injections. The participants were randomly assigned to ShotBlocker (n=30), Buzzy (n=30), and control (n=30) groups. Child Information Form, Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale, Children's Fear Scale, and Parental Satisfaction Questionnaire were used to collect the data. Results: ShotBlocker and Buzzy groups had significantly lower pain and fear and higher parental satisfaction scores than the control group following injections (p=0.0001). The lowest pain and fear scores and the highest parental satisfaction scores were observed in the Buzzy group (p=0.0001). Conclusions: Both ShotBlocker and Buzzy methods are effective in reducing pain and fear of children during intramuscular injections and increasing satisfaction of their parents. However, when compared to the ShotBlocker method, Buzzy method is more effective in reducing intramuscular injection-related pain and fear and should be preferred primarily. |
