Brief Summary

The aim of the study was to determine the effect of different auditorial methods of attention distraction on postoperative pain and anxiety in children. Three group pre and post-test randomized clinical trial.The data were collected using the Socio-demographic Data Form for Child and Parent, Visual Analogue Scale, Wong-Baker Faces Pain Scale and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children. The investigators found that listening to classical music, Turkish music and audiobook methods played an effective role in decreasing postoperative pain and anxiety state in children in the three groups in the study. As a result, investigators showed that different auditorial attention distraction methods had a decreasing effect on postoperative pain and anxiety in children.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Visual Analogue Scale

  Visual Analog Scale (VAS): It is a straight line with a length of 10 cm. On the '0 line', there is "no pain" and on the '10 line', it is "unbearable pain". The child is asked to mark the place indicating the severity of his/her pain.

• Wong-Baker Faces Pain Scale

  This was developed by Donna Lee Wong and Connie Morain Baker. This scale is used to determine the level of pain in children over three years of age. The severity of pain is determined by the child with choosing the face that describes the child's pain level on the scale starting with the smiling face and ending with the crying face.

• State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children

  This was developed by Spielberger (1973). It is a three-point Likert-type scale. The validity and reliability of the scale were performed by Özusta (1993).The scale consists of two parts as; 'state anxiety scale' and 'trait anxiety scale'. It consists of 40 items in total, 20 items in each part. The STAI-C was adapted from an adult scale and is also known as the "How I Feel Questionnaire". ıt comprises separate self-report scales for measuring two distinct anxiety concepts: state anxiety (S-Anxiety) and trait anxiety (T- Anxiety). The 20- item scale asseses a number of symptoms of anxiety such as "I get a funny feeling in my stomach" and "I am checking one of three alternatives that describes him or her best or indicates frequency of occurrence ( 1 = almost never; 2 = sometimes; 3 = often ).
