Brief Summary

Venipuncture is one of the most common stressful procedures in children. Managing pain and fear of venipuncture procedure recommended strongly because it may change children's memory for procedural pain and the subsequent acceptance of later health care painful interventions. Prior painful experiences can reduce the acceptance of later health care, hence making it more difficult for both patients and nurses. There was clear evidence that the distraction method is the most performed as a psychological technique performed to decrease venipuncture-related pain and distress and supporting its efficacy in children. The aim of this study to investigate the effectiveness of TICK-B on children's pain and anxiety during venipuncture procedure.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pain Intensity Measure

    Wong-Baker faces scale (WBFS). Used to measure the pain severity during the procedure, the WB-FBRS is a series of six cartoon faces positioned side-by-side from the greatest pain to the mildest one (0-5).

    Immediately after venipuncture (1-2 min)

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Fear Measure

    Immediately after venipuncture (1-2 min. )

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Pain and anxiety measured by parents and observe.

    Immediately after venipuncture (1-2 min.)
